1. Table excludes children
who are on a planned series of short term placements.
2. Breakdowns for Inverclyde
and South Lanarkshire (and therefore Scotland) have been estimated due to
the age group not being provided for some children in these areas. Some of the
totals in this table may not therefore exactly equal the sum of their component
parts due to the effects of rounding
3. Population figures used are as at
30 June 1999.
