Notes:

1. All figures are expressed in constant prices by applying the GDP deflator (base year 1985–86).

2. Local authorities did not receive annual block capital allocations for the housing revenue account until 1978–79.

3. Capital allocations to local authorities have, since 1982–83, been made on a net basis; the Secretary of State provides a net allocation in addition to which local authorities can spend the actual net capital receipts realised in the year in question. However, the figures for 1982–83 and subsequent years are given on a gross basis, that is, inclusive of net capital receipts. The figures for 1984–85 are in some cases still subject to audit. Information for 1985–86 cannot be provided on the same basis as for earlier years as figures for actual net capital receipts realised are not yet available. The figures provided for this year (*) therefore represent the gross allocations issued on 29 March 1985 together with any subsequent supplementary allocations, incorporating the original estimates of likely capital receipts for 1985–86.
