§ Mr. Andrew MitchellThe information is in the tables.
Numbers of children below fixed income thresholds Thousands 1979 Actual 1979 Adjusted 1992–93 (b) Below 50 per cent, of 1979 Average Income Before Housing Costs 1,230 1,150 1,220 After Housing Costs 1,430 3,340 1,910 Notes:
The 1979 adjusted column shows the numbers of children before fixed income thresholds based on grossing the total numbers of children in 1979 to the total number of children in 1992–93. This is done to remove the effect of the change in the total number of children.
All Estimates are subject to sampling error.
Estimates are shown to the nearest 10 thousand.
