1 Allocation not expenditure data provided for 1989–90. Expenditure details are not available on a consistent basis with future years because of the introduction of local authority capital expenditure controls in 1990–91. From this date information collected relates solely to local authorities expenditure against money provided through the Urban Programme, excluding any local authority expenditure financed through loans. Before this date authorities funded some of the schemes approved under the Urban Programme by raising loans and therefore only included appropriate loan charge payments on the payment returns.
2 Actual expenditure details not available until local authorities annual Audited claims are received at the end of the year.
