From January 2017, we have made the following changes to our methodology:
- We have changed the source we use to extract claimant data. This improves the accuracy of the figures reported but means all figures are rounded to the nearest five.
- We have also updated the denominators used to calculate constituency claimant rates to take account of the latest constituency population estimates for mid-2015 and to reflect recent trends in economic activity at the national and regional level.
