ID 2004: Combined Employment Domain Indicator for England, 2001-2003

Administrative data from the Office for National Statistics tracks unemployment benefits and New Deal participation across England. The dataset provides geospatial coverage at the Lower Layer Super Output Area (LSOA) level for the years 2001 and 2003.

Strengths

• Data is sourced from official administrative records from the Office for National Statistics
