Reporting status
We have used 3 categories of reporting status for the indicators:
Final – no further significant development of the indicator is immediately expected, notwithstanding the future development of the framework as a whole.
Interim – further development is necessary for the indicator to be complete; for example, England-level data may need to be extracted from a UK wide dataset, additional data may need to be added to the indicator, or the methods used for deriving an indicator are expected to be further developed. Interim indicators are in no way inferior to final indicators in terms of data quality and/or reliability.
In development – the indicator is not currently available to report; further research is required and/or ongoing to determine the most suitable data and methods for analysis.
Where there is additional information about the status of indicator data collection and reporting, this will be displayed at the top of the indicator page.
