Annual accounts of the Leeds Western and Eastern health authorities (Leeds area health authority for the years prior to 1982–83) and those of the Yorkshire regional health authority.

Notes:

1. HCHS covers all services directly managed by the health authorities concerned including hospital, community health and other services. Expenditure on family practitioner services (now family health services) is not strictly attributable to districts and is excluded. However, the figures for the years prior to 1985–86 include small elements relating to the administrative expenses of the former Leeds family practitioner committee which were included in relevant annual accounts but are not separately identifiable.

2. The figures for capital expenditure include amounts in respect of schemes within Leeds districts but recorded in the annual accounts of the Yorkshire regional health authority. All other expenditure incurred by the latter authority for the Leeds area or the Yorkshire region as a whole is excluded. Expenditure met on a national basis by other NHS organisations or by the Department is similarly excluded.

3. Figures for capital expenditure at regional and sub-regional levels tend to fluctuate year on year mainly reflecting changes in the pattern of capital investment throughout the country.
