1 All data are provisional.
2 Establishment . All principals as at 1 October 1997 providing unrestricted medical services and only those principals with restricted lists (e.g. schools) who have patients in the eligible age category. Cervical screening data for Greater Glasgow Health Board include data for women aged 19-20 years and are not therefore comparable with other health boards.
3 As at 1 April 1998. The average list size of a partnership is calculated by dividing the total number of patients on the partnership list of unrestricted principals by the number of partners (including vacant posts).
4 Patients of unrestricted principals, establishment at 1 April 1998. Child health surveillance is also supplied under community medical services.
5 Unrestricted principals, in post, at 1 April 1998.
6 Data relates to financial year 1996-97.
