HC Deb 07 December 1992 vol 215 cc513-8W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what level of funds were provided per head of population in each district health authority and each family health services authority in each year since 1989–90.

Mr. Sackville

The allocation of funds to district health authorities is a matter for regional health authorities and detailed information is not collected centrally. The spending of family health services authorities is primarily demand-led and funded accordingly. However, information which relates to the expenditure of DHAs and FHSAs to their resident populations for the years 1989–90 and 1990–91 is shown in the table.

The figures, which pre-date the national health service reforms, show DHAs as providers rather than purchasers of health care. Expenditure per head of population therefore reflects patterns of local service provision and the effects of patient flows across health authority boundaries. Thus the figures for DHAs will tend to vary significantly.

Information for 1991–92 will be available shortly.

Sources:

(a) Annual accounts of district health authorities and family health services authorities (formerly family practitioner committees)—1989–90 and 1990–91.

Mid-year estimates of resident population—1989 and 1990 (Office of Population Censuses and Surveys/Department of Health).

Notes:

1. The figures for the district health authorities are based upon their total revenue expenditure on the services which they managed or accounted for in the relevant financial years. Capital expenditure incurred by district health authorities and all expenditure incurred by regional health authorities is excluded.

2. The figures for the family health services authorities cover their total expenditure on family health services and revenue expenditure on their administrative expenses. Expenditure on family health services (which is essentially regarded as current—ie revenue—expenditure) is included on a net basis as reported in annual accounts (ie after the deduction of charges to patients).
