Summary

Reweighting of the Labour Force Survey prior to the release of the productivity economic commentary, UK: April to June 2020 led to the decision to delay the publishing of some productivity estimates. This decision was taken to give further time to review and analyse a complex data and ensure that estimates are calculated from most current dataset. These estimates will now be published on the 4th November 2020.
