Request
I am compiling some information on SIA licence holders and, whilst I have found the information provided beneficial, I was hoping for more detailed statistics if possible.
For instance, I can see that there are 2,038 SIA licence holders in Aberdeen for January 2025. Is there any way to break that data down further? For example, is it possible to see, out of the 2,038, how many identify as male, female, or non-binary? Or is it possible to see their age range, to better understand whether they use their SIA licence for full-time work or whether they are a student?
Whilst I appreciate that I can break down the total number of SIA licences into nationality and gender, I cannot break it down into region.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Response
The attached spreadsheets contain the ‘Aberdeen City’ figures for the following groups:
- Gender and age
- Gender and licence sector
Please be aware that some of the figures have been consolidated due to their small number and because they have the potential to release personal data.
