NOTES.
The accounts of health authorities on which the figures shown above have been based are still subject to audit.
Under the provisions of the Health Services (Financial Provisions) Act, 1947, grants equivalent to one-half of net revenue expenditure are paid from the Health Vote to each health authority. The loss to local funds which would result from a cessation of the income shown above would accordingly be reduced by one-half.
