Metro View The average per capita expenditure in the metros in <strong>2006</strong>/<strong>07</strong> was R313,<br />
about 20% more than the national average of R256. This is probably to a<br />
large extent due to the local authority contribution by these large metros,<br />
which generally have a good ratepayers’ tax base. All of the metros, with the<br />
exception of Nelson Mandela Bay, were above the national average. The<br />
three Gauteng metros and eThekwini (KwaZulu-Natal) were tightly clustered<br />
around R300 per capita. The local authority contribution in the six metros<br />
totalled nearly R1.2 billion and accounted for 32% of total PHC expenditure<br />
in these districts.<br />

Rural Nodes<br />
The average per capita expenditure in the rural districts in <strong>2006</strong>/<strong>07</strong> was<br />
R218, about 20% below the national average of R256 per capita. Seven of<br />
the twelve districts were close to the rural average with only one, Greater<br />
Sekhukhune (LP) significantly lower. Three of the four Eastern Cape districts<br />
were tightly clustered around R200 per capita with one, Chris Hani (R254<br />
per capita), maintaining an inequitable value above the other three. A<br />
very similar situation was shown in KwaZulu-Natal with three of the four<br />
districts clustered around R220 per capita, with Umkhanyakude inequitably<br />
receiving R308 per capita.<br />
