HC Deb 23 October 2001 vol 373 c153W
Mr. Reed

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what estimate he has made of the extra resources required to bring Leicestershire up to a 100 per cent. of its weighted capitation in(a) cash and (b) percentage terms. [9086]

Mr. Hutton

Leicestershire health authority's distance from weighted capitation target for 2001–02 is £15 million in cash terms or 2.44 per cent. below target. For 2001–02 Leicestershire health authority received an allocation of £616 million, which is an increase of £49 million in cash terms or 8.57 per cent. The weighted capitation formula is used to set targets that inform allocations but the formula does not determine allocations.
