Note: *GMS Non-cash Limitedis a demand led budget. As such, expenditure equates to demand for services andboards are allocated sufficient funds to meet the demand. Board allocations atthe year end, therefore, equal the final expenditure figure.

For both cash and non-cashlimited, the per Capita figures are calculated using the latest availablepopulation figures from General Registers Office Scotland (dated 30 June 2002).

Details on the whole time equivalentand headcount of paediatric consultants and paediatric nurses, as well as thepopulation by NHS board area, are available from the Scottish Parliament InformationCentre, (Bib. number 30418).

Rates per 100,000 populationare also given. These rates should be treated with caution. The variability inrates between health boards can be partly explained by the number of consultantseach rate is based on. Also, these rates do not take account of cross-borderflows between health boards e.g. patients resident in one health board area mayreceive their treatment in another health board.

An announcement is likely tobe made in February on the implementation of CAP reform in Scotland.The decision will take into account the outcomes of the consultation processand the strategic objectives in the Forward Strategy for Scottish Agriculture.Further decisions on the detail will be taken once the European Commission’sImplementing Regulations have been agreed.

The date for implementationof the new support arrangements is 1 January 2005.

The following table gives details of the number of Scots domiciled students at Scottish higher education institutions who receive no financial support with tuition fees from any external source.

Scots Domiciled Students at Scottish Higher Education Institutions

Tuitionfees have been abolished for Scottish domiciled and EU undergraduate studentsstudying full-time higher education courses in Scotland. This support is available to all eligible full-timestudents to undertake study up to degree level or equivalent, provided theyhave not previously undertaken such a course with assistance from public funds.A student who undertakes a second course at the same level or who repeats partof a course for which they have previously received fee support will, therefore,have to pay a contribution towards the cost of tuition.

Most students undertakinghigher education courses on a part-time or distance learning basis will have topay tuition fees although a fee waiver scheme is in place to meet this cost forstudents who are in receipt of benefits or on a low income.

Most postgraduate students willpay tuition fees, although full-time students on postgraduate certificate of education,postgraduate diploma in community education courses and those who are eligible foran award under the postgraduate students allowances scheme will have their feespaid.
