To provide a reply to Question 69711 would require us to undertake new analysis, involving collating information from several complex datasets and assuring the quality of the results. Although it is theoretically possible to answer, it is estimated this would take in excess of 4 working days and exceed the costs threshold of £850. An appraisal of the resources needed to enable the collation and publication of the requested statistics has not been made. We will consider our development priorities within the Statistical Work Programme.
