§ Yvette CooperSpending on genito-urinary medicine by national health service trusts in each of the past five years are shown in the table. 255W
Year £000 1996–97 117,910 1997–98 137,367 1998–99 151,745 1999–2000 171,593 2000–01 156,955 Note:
In 1999–2000 one NHS trust recorded expenditure on HIV/ AIDS within the speciality genito-urinary medicine. However, in 2000–01 the trust reclassified this expenditure and recorded it within the speciality infectious diseases. This accounts for an approximate decrease of £17 million in 2000–01 and also demonstrates that recording of expenditure on genito-urinary medicine can vary from year to year.Source:
