The final 1999 figure represented an increase of 5.5 percent from the $205.2 billion spent in 1998.

The figure represented an 18 percent increase from the period a year earlier.

The figure represents an increase of $31,000 over the 1987 average.

Police officials could not say, however, whether that figure represented an increase over the same period a year ago.

The new figure represents the best growth rate in nearly four years.

The figure represents 8.5 million people who do not have jobs but are looking for work.

This figure would represent around 30% of the local population.

However, the figure represents a 4.1 percent increase from July 1986.

That figure represents about a 3,700 percent increase in 30 years.

Even this figure represents a fall of 2,500 on 1991.
