1 Inclusive of joint finance but exclusive of carry forward from previous financial year. | |||||||||
2 Initial revenue cash limits fluctuate significantly throughout the financial year. They do not include allocations made separately following for example ministerial initiatives. The 1987–88 initial revenue cash limits do not include the £25 million allocated from the waiting list fund, £7 million for the treatment care and counselling of victims and carriers of AIDS or the £6 million provided for the establishment of a breast cancer screening service. | |||||||||
