Letter from Len Cook to Mr. John Bercow, dated 12 November 2001:
As National Statistician I have been asked to reply to your question concerning how many people of pensionable age there are in the Buckingham constituency. (14210)ONS does not produce population estimates on parliamentary constituency boundaries. The smallest area level for which we produce population estimates is for local authorities.Mid 2000 estimates of the number of people of pensionable age in local authority areas area available in table 8 on the National Statistics website at: http://www.statistics.gov.uk/downloads/theme population/PENo3/PENo3 v3.pdf
