Note: The number of childminders is an estimate based on the total number of registered childminders (6,051) provided by the Care Commission and include the ten per cent who responded to the survey saying they were inactive. Childminder figures are rounded to the nearest 10 and so totals may not equal the sum of their parts.
See background notes for details of revisions.
