Family Resources Survey: Special Licence Access list of datasets
| Users should obtain the data and documentation using the table below. |
|
Users are advised to visit the ESDS Government Family Resources Survey web pages for support in using these data, additional resources, and news and events.
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 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.
Special Licence Datasets
Users should note that these data are temporarily unavailable. This is because, DWP, with its lawyers, is currently reviewing the arrangements for depositing FRS and HBAI datasets and the Pensioner Income Table data at the UK Data Archive. This has prevented both the depositing of data for 2009/10 and authorising new requests to access data relating to previous years. Work is underway to resolve the issues relating to the Special Licence datasets as soon as possible.
