§ Mr. Llew SmithTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales what percentage of Welsh households in 1991 included someone with a long-term limiting illness.
§ Mr. Gwilym JonesThese figures are not available centrally. However, the Office of Population Censuses and Surveys (OPCS) have published a selection of 1991 Census results in the county monitor series (CEN 91 CM). A provisional figure for Wales as a whole can be derived from these rounded county statistics; it is that respondents in 32 per cent. of households adjudged that there were one or more persons in the household with a long-term limiting illness or disability. This included persons whose long term illness or disability was due to old age. National level results are expected to be released by OPCS in November 1992.
