Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, pursuant to the Answer of 6 February 2024 to Question 11938 on Veterans: Employment, if he will take steps to help ensure that the Office for National Statistics collects data on veterans in the labour market on a non-experimental basis.
The process the independent Office for National Statistics take to evaluate whether statistics should be labelled experimental statistics or not, is outlined here.
ONS welcome feedback on their plans for the transformation of the Labour Force Survey by emailing them at here. Currently all data from the Transformed Labour Force Survey is badged as experimental because it is still in the development phase including data on veterans in the labour market.
