Expenditure
In 2003-04, the total expenditure for Scotland is estimated at £45.3 billion or 10 per cent of the UK total. This includes devolved and reserved spending in Scotland.
Revenue
In 2003-04, total receipts (the main contributions coming from Income tax, Corporation tax, VAT, Social Security contributions, Local Authority revenues) in Scotland are estimated at £34 billion, equivalent to 8.2 per cent of total UK receipts. This excludes North Sea oil revenues.
I'm assuming Wales is similar.Last edited by doodab; 11 February 2010, 14:43.While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment
