Annual Population Survey Reweighting Project 2009:
In 2009, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) undertook a reweighting project, whereby APS data were reweighted using population estimates for 2009. As a result, reweighted editions of selected APS datasets from 2006 onwards have been deposited at the UK Data Archive. Users should note that datasets prior to 2006 remain weighted to 2007-2008 population estimates. Further information about the 2009 reweighting project is included in the documentation for the updated datasets. |

Accessing these data
The coming into force of the Statistics and Registration Service Act in April 2008 brought an end to the Special Licence arrangements that had been in operation since September 2005. Access to these data continues but under a new legal framework set out in the Act. From April 2008, any registered user requiring Special Licence data has to be accredited by the UK Statistics Authority as an Approved Researcher. UK users can order the data from UK Data Archive/ESDS in the usual way and will be directed to new Approved Researcher forms for completion. The older Special Licence forms can no longer be accepted.
