1. Figures include charter and contract carryings (see table 10.14).
2. This figure only covers the routes of Mallaig to the smaller isles since the freight is lifted by crane onto the vessels rather than transported by lorry onto the ferry.
3. Financial year beginning 1 April of year.
4. Calendar year.
5. In 2001 P & O's loose fright operations were taken over by a separate company called, Northwards, which did not provide the relevant information.
6. P & O Scottish Ferries stopped operating its services on 30 September 2002.
7. Northlink started operating its service on 1 October 2002. Therefore, the figures for 2002 relate to the final three months of the calendar year.
8. Only coaches and mini-buses are included under this heading for 2003.
