3. The number of rooms includes kitchens and any habitable rooms, such as bedrooms, living rooms and dining rooms. It does not include bathrooms, halls and other uninhabitable rooms such as workrooms, utility rooms etc.

6. NHER ratings could not be calculated for 8 cases (representing around 3,000 households). These missing values have been reapportioned pro-rata between the other categories so that the total equals the total household count for the year.

7. Paragraph 57 gives the definitions of the various household types

11. This comparison uses two different definitions of fuel poverty. A comparison using the same definition results in a fall from 36% to 9%. See the 2002 fuel poverty report for further details: http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/Statistics/SHCS/FuelPoverty

12. The 1996 data contained 323 cases with missing fuel poverty information, equivalent to 48,000 households. The 2002 data contained 379 missing values (56,000 households), the 2003/4 data 184 missing values (141,000 households) and the 2004/5 data 182 missing values (131,000 households).

13. Based on the 1996 definition of fuel poverty

17. This figure has been revised slightly - see paragraphs 5 and 32. In 2003/4, 65 missing values were reapportioned pro rata between pass and fail. In 2004/5, 50 missing values were reapportioned, while in 2002 those for which pass or fail could not be assigned were included as passes.

18. The definition of full central heating for SHQS purposes is: "whole dwelling or rooms representing more than 50% of the floor area of the dwelling with the heating controlled from a single point".

19. Note that the proportion with one or more fail does not equal the proportion quoted in paragraph 44. This is because the missing values have not been reapportioned in this table.
