Statistical Bulletin: HSG/2005/2: People
assisted through Supporting People funding: 2003-04
4. Notes on tables
4.1 The data presented in these tables refer to the
financial year 2003-04 with the exception of Renfrewshire
council who were only able to provide snapshot figures at
31st March 2004. This is the first collection of such data
and as a result, some local authorities have had difficulty
in providing all of the information requested. In some
tables, estimates have been made and these have been
detailed in the footnotes.
4.2 Some local authorities have been unable to provide
age or gender breakdowns. Where this occurs, unknowns have
been distributed proportionally amongst the age/gender
categories using proportions from Scotland totals for each
client group separately.
4.3 A client may be recorded in more than one client
group, support hours, duration of support or support
provider if their needs change during the course of the
year, however the client should only be counted once in the
net totals. Some local authorities have been unable to
remove this double counting and where this occurs, gross
totals have been reduced proportionally to total to the net
number of clients.
4.4 The following symbols are used in all tables:
- | nil |
* | less than half the final digit shown (less
than: 0.5%, 50 for figures rounded to the
nearest hundred, or 5 for figures rounded to
the nearest 10) |
.. | not available |
