HC Deb 31 October 1995 vol 265 cc197-8W
Mr. Galbraith

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list(a) the underspend for the year 1994–95, (b) the initial reallocation for the year 1995–96 and (c) the revised reallocation for 1995–96 for each health board. [40313]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

The audited accounts for health boards for 1994–95 have recently been received and are currently being analysed. Provisional figures for the underspend for each health board based on these accounts are set out in the table. There is only one reallocation which derives from these underspends, subject to parliamentary approval. For the year 1995–96 the reallocation is likely to be the major part of the underspend for 1994–95, but the precise figures have yet to be finalised.
