The line 8 Capital Value Yr End (outturn) value for 2004-05 has been recalculated from 1997-98 to outturn prices using year end RPI for 2004-05 divided by year end RPI for 1997-98. This results in values which are consistent with those published in RD 07/05. The method of indexation applied to values for previous years is unchanged. They are calculated using RPI financial year end for 2004-05 divided by financial year average for 1997-98.
