3 Includes caravans, houseboats and other non-building structures used solely as a permanent dwelling
4 Data for 1995 exclude some Late call, heat and smoke damage only incidents.
5The Figures are weighted samples and do not necessarily sum to the independently rounded totals - see Annex Note 5.12.
r Data for 2000 are revised.
