(a) Shire counties
(b) Unitary authorities
(c) Shire districts
The structure of local government has changed over the period, with the staged establishment of unitary authorities. Where these exist they took on. for their area, the function of the old shire county and district.
Where relevant, shire districts pre-reorganisation have been placed on the same line as the post-reorganisation unitary authority.
A dash denotes an authority did not exist during the financial year and a negative figure would represent a net income.
