1. Figures between 1992/93 and 2002/03 and between Wakefield and England are not directly comparable for the following reasons.
a) In 1992/93 Revenue Support Grant (RSG) and National Non-Domestic Rate (NNDR) amounts were paid only to billing authorities. Consequently, the amounts shown for Wakefield cover all services including Police and Fire. From 1993/94 onwards, support for Police and Fire was paid directly to the relevant Police and Fire Authorities. The figures for England do include Police and Fire for both 1992/92 and 2002/03.
b) There have been changes in the responsibilities of local authorities.
c) In 1992/93, only information on RSG, NNDR and Specific Grants inside AEF are available on a consistent basis.
2. The revenue and capital expenditure figures for 2002/03 are budget estimates.
