Notes

1. The expenditure shown is the total of revenue and capital expenditure by each district and area health authority, together with regional health authority capital expenditure on services for that particular district or area. Other expenditure by regional health authorities cannot be attributed to individual districts and is therefore excluded.

2. Total revenue expenditure on the London ambulance service, which is met by the four Thames regional health authorities, was:

	£ million
1979–80	23.0
1980–81	29.9
1981–82	33.7
1982–83	34.8
1983–84	35.2
1984–85^*	35.7

3. The table excludes payments to doctors, dentists, pharmacists, opticians and others contracted to provide family practitioner services. Only a limited number of authorities account for this expenditure and it is not attributed to individual districts. The total of these payments for the Greater London area was:

	£ million
1979–80	239.1
1980–81	297.9
1981–82	342.8
1982–83	389.8
1983–84	410.4
1984–85^*	453.1

4. The table groups the former area health authorities with the district health authorities which succeeded them in 1982. For some inner London authorities this does not give an exact match because of the boundary changes made at the time, and the figures are therefore not fully comparable over the whole period.
