Abstract
Literature relating to territorial variations in the pattern of service development is well established. Less emphasis has been placed on accounting for variations in the determinants of innovation through time. 1980 and 1982 data sets are compared with special emphasis on the changing role of financial variables. There appears to have been a switch from distress to growth-led innovation, at least in domiciliary care. Wider implications for policy are outlined.
