Statistics are most often revised for 1 of 2 reasons:

  1. For certain statistics initial estimates are released with the expectation that these may be revised and updated as further data becomes available.
  2. Revisions may also be made when methods or systems are changed.

These types of planned revisions should not be confused with errors in released statistics, which are genuine mistakes. Such mistakes occur rarely and, when they do happen, corrections are made in a timely manner, announced and clearly explained to users in line with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics (Principle 2, Practice 7).

Correction See correction
An error was identified in the summary datasets originally published on 30 January 2024. As part of these statistics, the population defined as “Children”, “Working age” and “Pension age” in the tabs “Males” and “Females” incorrectly showed statistics for “Persons”. This was caused by a processing error and none of the underlying figures were affected. The error has now been rectified in the replacement tables provided.
