NISRA have identified a user need to produce more detailed sub-regional and sub-group statistics from household surveys. Following an in-house feasibility study, it was found that by combining data from four existing core Northern Ireland household surveys such statistics could be produced. As a result, statistics on labour market and other demographic factors have been generated with both greater geographical detail and smaller sampling errors than up to now.
The report summarises this work along with a detailed metadata report.
Published tables cover five years of data (2010/11 to 2014/15) and by Local Government District (LGD 2014). These tables are released as “experimental statistics” still under development.
