Notes

The numbers of adults as a percentage of all adults known to a local authority are estimates as the figures may not have come from the same base of individuals.
Care should be taken when comparing 2003 and 2004 figures. Differences between these figures can be partially accounted for by changes to guidance associated with the survey and improvements in data collection techniques as well as actual changes in the numbers known to authorities.
