Notes:

1. Payments made centrally on behalf of health authorities for income tax, national insurance and superannuation have been included.

2. Prior to 1982–83 the Dyfed area health authority covered the whole county.

3. From 1 April 1985, the responsibility for family practitioner services was transferred from health authorities to independent family practitioner committees. Expenditure on these services has therefore been excluded from the figures provided.
