Notes:

1. PCT level expenditure is calculated using expenditure on own PCTs population divided through by the Unified Weighted Population for the PCT. Unified Weighted Population figures are those used to determine PCT allocations and are adjusted to take account of age, sex and need.

2. The England level expenditure per head is calculated using gross expenditure on mental health as reported in the Department’s resource accounts, which includes the Department, PCT, SHA and special health authority expenditure.
