Footnotes:   1.  Percentage growth is calculated on the 1998-99 baselines and not on 1997-98 allocations as shown in Table 4.5.2.   2.  All figures are as the 1998-99 allocations announcement made on 29 October 1997. The growth figures are therefore as calculated using the GDP deflator at the time of 2.75 per cent.
