Description The business demography dataset includes births, deaths and survivals of UK enterprises. The active stock of businesses is also shown, so that birth and death rates can be calculated. This indicator is based on data from a new series produced by the Office for National Statistics (Business Demography) aimed at obtaining the best estimates of new business formations. The new Business Demography series will replace, by 2009, the current VAT registrations and de-registrations publication currently available on the BERR website. The new series measures business births in a different way to VAT registrations statistics and as a result will be extended to include businesses registered for PAYE. The new methodology conforms to a European definition and excludes businesses registering due to restructuring of existing businesses and re-activations of dormant units from the count of new business formations. The new Business Demography series will not be revised in the same way as the current VAT registration series. The VAT registrations series is subject to back revision every year, whereas the new Business Demography enterprise births series will not be revised once published. The new statistics were published for the first time on 28 November 2008 and contained the number of business registrations occurring in 2007.

It aims to provide a high profile gateway into the HMRC decision-making process for businesses and individuals seeking additional 'Time to Pay' (TTP) the tax owed and to give quick decisions in the simpler and lower risk cases. Demand for TTP through the BPSS is measured by the number and value of arrangements made (and declined) and not the number of businesses supported.
