Title: Local counts
Description: Public money could be wasted on the next census according to this report. The New Local Government Network claim that the information gathered will be out of date by the time it is published, will be insufficiently detailed and could underestimate the number of people living in Britain. The report argues that the survey, which is conducted every ten years and due to occur next in 2011, cannot accurately reflect the true state of Britain because of poor quality information on households, high rates of population mobility and a growing reluctance to fill in official forms. .
Subjects: Census, 2001
