Solved Format lists for uniformity

I have 3 blurbs
1 is paragraph + list
2 is paragraph + list + paragraph
3 is paragraph + list + paragraph + list

The space between the top of each list and the paragraph above it changes depending on whether the list is the final item or if it is followed by another paragraph.

I would like to have the space between paragraph and list equal regardless of whether there is a closing paragraph.

The space starts out fine as I am creating it, but contracts if don't add a final paragraph. It expands too wide if i do add a paragraph.

Can anyone assist with a way forward. I think this one has got me.

I found one way to do this which seems to work. I added style tags to the paragraph immediately above the offending lists and set padding-bottom to a pixel number worked. Adjusted the UL tags in the same way, and all is well. (a bit of a hack probably)
