1 The £449 million student bursary budget was only allocated in 2007-08 to the 10 new SHAs rather than the 28 former SHAs following NHS reorganisation. 2 AGW allocation excludes £8,800,000 for Skills for Health budget. 3 S Yorkshire allocation excludes £32,100,000 for Electronic Staff Record project. Note: 1. Allocations are not directly comparable due to the composition of the budget in each year.
