Table 1.5 MOD Resources by Budgetary Areas1
This table provides a detailed breakdown of resource consumption by budgetary area for 2003/04 through to 2007/08. Under Spending Review 2002 rules, figures for financial years 2003/04 onward include non-cash items such as depreciation and cost of capital charge that previously were part of Annually Managed Expenditure (AME).
 
The revisions in Resource DEL and Capital DEL for the earlier years are due to 'Non Allocated' amounts being subsequently attributed to the correct TLB.
From 2007/08, changes to the MOD Top Level Budget (TLB) structure have been reflected in the figures and highlighted at footnotes 2-5.
 
This table includes expenditure on Conflict Prevention (RfR2).

1. Full TLB definitions are available in the Glossary at the back of this publication.
2. C-in-C Fleet TLB includes the former 2nd Sea Lord/C-in-C Naval Home Command TLB from 2006/07.
3. Land Command includes the former Adjutant General (Personnel and Training Command).
4. Air Command is an amalgamation of 'Air Officer Commanding in Chief RAF Personnel and Training Command' and 'RAF Strike Command'.
5. Revisions within RDEL and CDEL for the years 2003/04 to 2006/07 are caused by the attributions of costs previously classed as 'Not Allocated'. Totals for 2006/07 have been adjusted for consistency to the MOD Annual Report and Accounts.
6. Defence Equipment & Support was created from the amalgamation of the 'Defence Logistic Organisation' and 'Defence Procurement Agency'.
7. The 'Defence Estates' TLB was formed on 1 April 2005 . This was formerly part of 'Central' TLB. There is no historic data for this new TLB.
8. AME for 2003/04 onwards includes accounting charges relating to nuclear decommissioning, loan interest and cost of capital charges for self financing
    public corporations. The negative AME figures arise from the cash release from the nuclear decommissioning provision and the cost of capital charge
    calculated on a net balance sheet liability (as opposed to net assets).
