Notes on the tables:
1. "T"denotes an area health authority (teaching) and the relative expenditure figures are influenced by additional expenditure on the provision of facilities for the clinical teaching of medical and dental students.
2. Expenditure figures used have been taken from the annual accounts of the health authorities in the regions. Capital expenditure included in the accounts of the regional health authorities which is identified as appropriate to specified areas has been included in the expenditure per head of the population of those areas. Other regional expenditure not so included amounts annually to an average per head of population for the regions as a whole of between £2 (1974–75) and £5 (1978–79)for North Western and between £2 (1974–75) and £4 (1978–79) for Yorkshire.
3. The population figures used for each year are the mid-year estimates of resident population, which make no allowance for people resident in one area who receive treatment in another, or for the differences in morbidity and age/sex structure of particular populations.
