Household projections provide an indication of the number of additional households that would form if recent demographic trends continue. This release will provide household type data for England and its local authority districts. These statistics have not yet been formally reviewed for compliance with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics since their transfer from the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government. The Office for Statistics Regulation will conduct this review in the near future.

Designation can be broadly interpreted to mean that the statistics:

- are produced according to sound methods
- are managed impartially and objectively in the public interest
Once statistics have been designated as National Statistics it is a statutory requirement that the Code of Practice shall continue to be observed.
