Note:
In 1992–93,revenue support grant and redistributed national non-domestic rates paid to district councils included a share of the amounts that were payable to the county council for the area, and separate amounts attributable to each district council were not separately identified. Figures for Worcester city council are not therefore available for 1992–93.
