[pursuant to his reply, 21 January 1985, c. 330]: Following is the information requested, derived from the annual accounts of regional and district health authorities.Figures for 1983–84 are not strictly comparable with those for 1982–83 as value added tax on contracted-out services became reclaimable by health authorities on 1 September 1983 and should have been excluded in recording expenditure incurred after that date.
