HC Deb 17 February 1986 vol 92 c60W
Mr. Deakins

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the annual expenditure per person on primary health care in (a) Waltham Forest and (b) Brighton; and how these figures compare with the national average.

Mr. Hayhoe

Following are the latest available figures:

Expenditure per head of population on primary health care*
District health authority 1989–85
£
Waltham Forest 87
Brighton 90
Average for district health authorities (England) 83

* Current expenditure on community health services plus net expenditure on family practitioner services. The latter expenditure cannot strictly be attributed to particular districts but has been included (pro-rata to population) from the annual accounts of the family practitioner committees which account for it.
