Statistical quality

A number of data items are unavailable for 2015-16. The scope of the social services data collections was reduced for 2015-16 in order to ease the burden on local authorities while they made preparations for the change to data requirements for 2016-17, following the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 coming into force.

Please find information in the related statistical publication, or alongside further information on quality and methods in the Quality Report, as per the given weblinks.
