1. From June 2005, this includes households with children or pregnant women. Figures from this point onward are therefore not strictly comparable with previous ones.
2. Percentages are calculated using the 2004-based projection for 2006.

Figures previously provided by North Ayrshire for 31 March 2003-31 March 2007 included all households placed in temporary accommodation during the quarter. Figures have been revised for this publication using corrected data.
