Notes: Please interpret changes with caution as they may be due to improved data collection methods rather than actual changes in client numbers.
Glasgow data are estimates based on a 77% return boosted up to 100%.
2004-05 data for Glasgow are snapshot and cannot be directly compared with 2003-04, which was financial year data.
2004-05 data for Fife cannot be directly compared with 2003-04 data which was based on number of places and therefore an undercount.
Data for Renfrewshire for 2003-04 and 2004-05 are snapshot as at 31 March 2004 and 2005 respectively.
Population data are at mid-year 2003 and 2004 for persons aged 16 and over.
