Time series consistency

Analysis for Census Area Statistics (CAS) wards, which in England and Wales mostly relate to 2003, has been available on Names since March 2004 - the first data were for February 2004. To provide for analysis by wards where there have been subsequent boundary changes in England and Wales, total claimant counts and flows by sex will now be published, back to October 2004, for the 2004 statistical wards.

Reliability

The data are built up by output areas. Please note, therefore, that it is not possible to provide data for the few statistical wards which are smaller than the corresponding output areas.
