Public Expenditure: Census
- Question
-
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether his timetable for reviewing the population estimates used in the Barnett formula has been affected by the changes in timing to the 2021 census in some parts of the UK.
- Answer
-
The population numbers used in the Barnett formula are the mid-year estimates published annually by the ONS, rather than just the estimates generated for the years when the census takes place. We will continue to use these annual estimates and they will reflect information from the census once this is available.
