Summary

The Annual Population Survey is a dataset that is made up of Labour Force Survey responses, plus a boost sample where respondents are interviewed annually for up to four consecutive years. The datasets consist of around 250,000 individuals.

Documentation

The Annual Population Survey is a dataset that is made up of Labour Force Survey responses in the first and fifth waves of interviewing, plus a boost sample where respondents are interviewed annually for up to four consecutive years. The datasets consist of around 250,000 individuals, each of whom only appear once in the dataset (the use of the first and fifth waves avoids response being counted twice). The larger sample makes the data better suited for estimates of employment (etc.) at local authority level. Comprehensive information regarding the surveys is available via the user guidance and also the QMI pages for both the LFS and AP.

Patient pathway description

Presumably the 250, 000 people are UK wide so we should say 'in the UK, where the Welsh records held in SAIL are a subset of this'

Access request cost

Data provision is free from SAIL. Overall project costing depends on the number of people that require access to the SAIL Gateway, the activities that SAIL needs to complete (e.g. loading non-standard datasets), data refreshes, analytical work required, disclosure control process, and special case technological requirements.

Access service description

The SAIL Databank is powered by the UK Secure e-Research Platform (UKSeRP). Following approval through safeguard processes, access to project-specific data within the secure environment is permitted using two-factor authentication.
