Footnotes
- From 2023, the data collection changed from aggregated figures at local authority level, to a person level collection. This has been a major change in approach and as such care should be taken with comparisons across this period. Further detail on the change is provided in the publication and supporting methodology.
- Data on ethnicity and gender has been collected from 2023 only.
- This data item has been marginally impacted by reporting issues in some local authorities – please see the methodology for further information.
