(1) Police Authorities receive National Non Domestic Rates and Revenue Support Grant from the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister

(2) The figures for 2002–03 are not directly comparable with 2001–02. The National Crime Squad/National Criminal Intelligence Service are now funded centrally, rather than through police authorities. On a like-for-like basis the comparable total for 2001–02 would have been £366.2 million. The year on year percentage change in 2002–03 is calculated on the like-for-like basis.

In addition, the following grants have also been made:
