1. Reports submitted to Courts, excluding Supplementary Reports (see Annex, paragraph 19.6).
2. In 2005-06, other includes employment status not known; retired; part time education; custody; supported by parents; looking after relatives; permanently sick; not eligible for benefits.

3. Includes a small amount of estimated data for missing information in Glasgow City and Moray in 2005-06.
