We have identified an error in estimates of imports of services from Bahrain and United Arab Emirates in 2021. This affects data for these two series in tables 5b and 6b, as well as total imports from Bahrain and United Arab Emirates in tables 1b and 2b. The data for these series will be corrected in our July 2024 release in line with the National Accounts revisions policy: As an indicative estimate of the impact, we anticipate that when these series are corrected, imports of services from Bahrain will decrease by around £0.2bn for each quarter in 2021, with imports of services from the United Arab Emirates increasing by around £0.2bn for each quarter in 2021. We apologise for any inconvenience this causes.
