Appendix 4 - Corrections and
clarifications
While every effort is made to ensure that the results
reported in the
SHS Reports are accurate, we aim to
report
SHS results as soon as possible after
the data are available. Owing to the scale and complexity
of the exercise, from time to time, errors are made.
Three mistakes in last year's Annual Report (that
reported results from the 2003 Scottish Household Survey)
have been brought to our attention.
- Table 6.52: Childcare arrangements used, if any, by
sex of Highest Income Householder.
- Table 6.53: Reasons for using childcare
- Table 6.62: Whether household members have a
disability or long-term health problem
The data presented in these tables should be ignored. In
this report, Table 6.53, Table 6.54 and Table 6.63 provide
corrected results based on the combined 2003/2004
dataset.
It is the policy of the
SHS team to take action to correct
significant errors as soon as possible. Should readers find
errors in any
SHS publication, they should contact the
SHS Project Manager at
shs@scotland.gsi.gov.uk.
