1. Available from the
ONS website (www.statistics.gov.uk)
2. Calculated against all those deemed to be
economically active
3.
UK rates of self-employment are highest
for Pakistanis at 22% and Chinese at 19%
4. This range for the contribution to
GDP has been estimated conservatively
from an assumption of over 4,000
MEBs accounting for 3% of
SMEs. It is further assumed that this
accounts for approximately 1% or less of
GDP, (there are some large minority
ethnic enterprises) which gives the calculation of
£500-£700 million. See Annex 3.
5. Respondents were not asked to distinguish whether
the funding sought was short or medium-term.
6. This assumes that the contribution will be a
little under 1% of Scotland's
GDP, see also the previous discussion in
Chapter 3.
