§ Mr. Christopher Priceasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the amount of revenue allocated to each area health authority within the Thames regional health authorities for the financial year 1976–77; and what the revenue allocations would have been if they had been determined according to the principles recommended by the Resource Allocation Working Party for determining revenue allocations to regions in 1976–77.
§ Mr. MoyleI understand from the Thames regional health authorities that the revenue cash limit allocations made to their respective area health authorities for 1976–77 were as shown below. These allocations may not include provision for certain items of expenditure.
315WThe interim report of the Resource Allocation Working Party did not recommend specific allocations to regions for 1976–77 but illustrated the possible effect of exercising in a certain way some of the judgments to be made about the extent to which resources should be redeployed between authorities in the year. The application of the principles in the report cannot by themselves be applied to produce particular allocations to area health authorities for 1976–77.
