The Office for National Statistics (ONS), devolved administrations and relevant departments have been working together to create new UK-wide data in high-priority areas of shared interest across UK administrations.
This work is led by the ONS Local and Coherence division, through regular engagement with the devolved administrations, Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) and the Government Statistical Service (GSS) Heads of Profession and Directors of Analysis.
Some examples of new UK-wide data, previously not available, have been produced for:
- public transport availability
- house building (including for local authorities)
- productivity (gross value added per hour)
- housing purchase affordability
- smoking
- green jobs estimates
We are continuing to work with the devolved administrations and DLUHC to agree and create further new UK-wide data during 2024. More information about this work will be provided on this page when available.
