Changes to this release date

1. Previous date

   10 June 2020 9:30am

   Reason for change

   The coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak presents a significant challenge to the UK, and the Office for National Statistics (ONS) is working to ensure that the UK has the vital information needed to respond to the impact of this pandemic on our economy and society. As both data collection and quality assurance are likely to present some significant challenges, we have made the decision to make some small delays to some of our publications to ensure that we have adequate time to quality assure our estimates.

   Reason for change

   As the demand increases for statistics and data to measure the impact of the COVID19 pandemic, we have had to change data gathering and release practices, focusing efforts on priority analysis and statistics. As such we have re-scheduled this release. Please see our statement on how we are responding to the coronavirus illness.
