"Figure 2: Annual net international migration to England is +186,500 from year ending mid-2027 onwards","" "Total international migration, England, years ending mid-1996 to mid-2030 ","" "","" "Notes","1. Historical international figures for England, Wales and Scotland are primarily based on International Passenger Survey (IPS) data. Northern Ireland figures are obtained directly from the Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency (NISRA) and derived mainly from medical card data. The data in this figure will differ from published calendar year long-term international migration estimates. 2. Immigration and emigration data for the years ending mid-2002 to mid-2010 come from the mid-year population estimates components of change, which contained revisions to account for the results of the 2011 Census. Therefore, the figures will differ from the published long-term international migration estimates. 3. Historical migration data are rounded to the nearest thousand. 4. Data for the year ending mid-2021 and onwards are projections."
