Notes:
1984–1992 figures taken from the annual Statements on the European Community Budget. 1993 and 1994 figures taken from adopted budgets, as amended.
All sterling figures converted at the rate of £1=1·3243 ecu, the rate notified in the Official Journal as prevailing on the last working day of last year (31 December 1993).
The Community budget is established on an annual basis. However, ceilings for six main categories of expenditure were included in the financial perspective agreed by the European Council at Edinburgh in December 1992. This included an overall ceiling, in 1992 prices, on administrative expenditure, which is as follows:
