300 millions sur des dépenses de 690 milliards? En livres courantes? Cela serait donc une baisse importante en livres constantes,

The choice of the reference year makes no difference to proportions (the evolution in %), only to absolute numbers, so it's mostly omitted; when they take the trouble to specify the reference year - or the reference period - base [year or start year-end year] is added after.

D'où l'inquiétude des pouvoirs publics qui ont vu les prestations sociales versées aux familles monoparentales, en Grande-Bretagne, passer de 2 milliards de livres en 1981-82 à 8 milliards en 1993-94 (en livres constantes, base 1993-94)..

neutral  Francois Boye: pourquoi constantes est au pluriel? N'est-ce pas la livre sterling -de 2018- qui est constante.?

agree  Eliza Hall: I might prefer "livres sterling 2018," but this works too. @François: "in X currency" is generally plural (prix en euros, etc.), and I've seen "en dollars constants."

disagree  Daryo: the point is not in the variations of prices but in the variations of the value of the monetary unit + what would be "the price of a computer" in AD 1300?+ "à prix constants " would measure the increase in GDP, not the variation of the value of the pound.

disagree  Eliza Hall: It's not the prices that are held constant in this equation, but the value of the pound.
