Important Information

Prior to the December 2011 edition of the Monthly Economic Summary (published 18^th January 2012), the Office for National Statistics (ONS) used 1991 census wards as the building blocks to calculate figures for higher geographies.  As these were slightly different to current boundaries, the official ONS claimant count figures included in Tables 5 and 6 up until November 2011 were higher than the corresponding figures built up from the 2001 census wards and presented in Tables 1 and 2.

On 18^th January 2012, the way that local authority and county figures are calculated changed to use Lower Super Output Areas as the building blocks; these align with the current county and district boundaries.  From the December 2011 edition onwards, the claimant count figures for all districts, and the county total, reflect current boundaries.
