HC Deb 14 March 1986 vol 93 cc614-6W
Mr. Dewar

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish a table showing separately for (i) hospital and community health services, (ii) family practitioner services and (iii) social services, actual and planned expenditure in England for the years 1978–79 to 1988–1989 in (a) cash prices, (b) cost terms and (c) volume terms, showing the percentage increases over 1978–79, on a basis consistent with Table 2.12 of Cmnd. 9702–II.

Mr. Hayhoe

The following tables contain the information that the hon. Member requested. Since expenditure is given net of patient charges in table 2.12 of Cmnd. 9702–II, the expenditure figures are given on a net basis. Actual expenditure figures may differ from planned as a result of transfers between revenue and capital expenditure. The expenditure figures also exclude current and capital expenditure on central health and miscellaneous services. Pay and price indices specific to health and personal social services expenditure programmes are not available for 1985–86, nor for the public expenditure planning period.
