Scottish Household Survey
(2007 - Quarter 3)
This is the latest in a series of quarterly
Statistics Publication Notices which announces the availability
of the Scottish Household Survey for a particular quarter.
In accordance with National Statistics, this will help to
ensure orderly and open access to the Scottish Household Survey
(SHS). In practice, this means that the SHS for this quarter
can be used to answer questions to inform policy from people
within and outwith the Scottish Government.
