What this measures

Public sector expenditure on services on other transport, a component of economic affairs, in cash terms, from HM Treasury's PESA Table 5.2 (UN COFOG classification).

What this doesn’t measure

Spending by any single department or body: PESA classifies by the purpose of spending, not by who spends it.

Important caveat

PESA classifies spending by function using the UN COFOG framework, so "health" is every public body's spending on health services, not the Department of Health's budget, and "defence" follows COFOG rather than the NATO definition. Figures are outturn for the whole public sector including local government and public corporations. Cash figures rise with inflation; the real-terms table restates them at 2024-25 prices with the GDP deflator. Classification changes are footnoted in the table: student loans from 2011-12, Network Rail from 2011-12 and the treatment of EU transactions after 2020. Total managed expenditure includes accounting adjustments that are not allocated to any function.
