Provides estimates of expenditure on welfare services in Australia for the period 1992-93 to 1997-98. It is the first in the series to report separate estimates of government expenditure on welfare services for the aged and for people with a disability. The bulletin includes monetary expenditures funded by all levels of government, by non-government community services organisations and by households. It also compares government welfare services spending with other areas of government spending and analyses the sources of growth in this expenditure.
