Notes:

Figures are provisional and may be revised in 2008-09.

Figures include all episodes of ceasing to be looked after (i.e. a child may be counted more than once).

Fife did not provide information on children ceasing to be looked after. Fife's figures from 2006-07 have been incorporated into this table.

Falkirk did not provide information for this table. The total numbers of children ceasing to be looked after in this local authority have been included in the "not known" row.
