1. Based on weighted data and including children's expenditure.
2. For 2001-02, a new coding frame for expenditure items was introduced to the Expenditure and Food Survey. As a result, many individual expenditure items for 2001-02 are not directly comparable with those from previous years. However, the categories still include all the same types of expenditure.
3. There are differences between the figures shown in this table and the ones in table 11.11b. The latter are on the basis which is now used in the Office for National Statistics' Family Spending publication, which reports the results of the Expenditure and Food Survey.
The main differences are that:
a) the 'net purchase of motor vehicles, spares and accessories' category includes expenditure on protective head gear which in Family Spending is included within 'clothing and footwear.'
b) the 'purchase and maintenance of other vehicles and boats' category is within 'recreation and culture' in Family Spending.
c) the 'Railway fares' and 'Bus and coach fares' categories do not include expenditure on 'combined fares' (e.g. bus + train in one ticket). This expenditure is included in the 'Other travel and transport' category.
d) Air fares are not included in this table.
4. Information on expenditure on transport was not asked for in the SHS in 2007 or 2008, but will be included in 2009.
5. The figures in this column refer to the average expenditure over the three financial year periods to reduce the effect of the sampling errors
