On the Department for Communities and Local Government website there is a consultation document outlining proposals to cease publication of a number of statistical data sets, they include:
* Housing and Planning Statistics and key facts
* Electronic Survey of Empty Homes
* Local Area Council Tax Dwellings
* Register of Licensed Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs).
* Commercial and industrial floor space and RV statistics
* Economic Deprivation Index
* Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI)
* Child Well-being Index
* Citizenship Survey (all parts)
There is also an implied threat to the next 'indices of deprivation'.
Isn't it funny that the majority of the data sets are in one way or another indicators of poverty and deprivation? Are the condems trying to do away with data and statistics that show the impact and outcomes of their policies in a bad light?
