NOTES

(1) The allocation shown above for a particular service is not necessarily equivalent to expenditure on that service.

(2) Housing authorities are permitted to adjust their capital allocations as between house-purchase loans and supplementary housing grants, subject to the combined total allocation for these purposes not being exceeded. While account is taken in the above figures of major re-allocations as between these two services there may be other minor adjustments not accounted for. The figures in column (b) contain small amounts for loans for the reconstruction of private houses.

(3) The capital allocations for 1967/68 to individual authorities are at present under consideration.
