NOTES:

Current: The percentage variations reflect changes in the levels of pay and prices in the two allocations as well as additional money made available for development of hospital services. The figures for the two years are not entirely comparable because of differences in sums unallocated.

Capital: The totals include expenditure on development schemes undertaken by arrangement between the Boards and the Department which may affect one year more than another.
