Letter from Len Cook to Mr. Lindsay Hoyle, dated 30 October 2001:
As National Statistician, I have been asked to reply to your question on the percentage of gross domestic product generated by the manufacturing and service sectors in each of the last five years (10088).Information on the contribution of individual industries is not available. However, it is possible to analyse gross value added (GVA) at basic prices by industry. GVA is similar in concept to gross domestic product, differing only in adjustments for taxes and subsidies on products.The following table shows the percentage of GVA generated by manufacturing and services.
Manufacturing and service contribution to Gross Value Added: 1996 to 2000 Percentage Calendar Year Manufacturing Services 1996 21.5 66.4 1997 21.1 67.6 1998 20.1 69.3 632W
Gross domestic product (GDP) per head by NUTS level 3 area at current basic prices 19981,2,3 £ million Inner London: West = 100 UK = 100 Inner London: West 57,281 100 456 Berkshire 19,008 33 151 Edinburgh, City of 18,417 32 147 Swindon 18,129 32 144 Portsmouth 18,012 31 144 Milton Keynes 17,557 31 140 Nottingham 17,373 30 138 Belfast 17,159 30 137 Peterborough 17,158 30 137 Glasgow City 16,495 29 131 Surrey 15,945 28 127 Cambridgeshire cc 15,783 28 126 Inner London: East 15,496 27 123 Bristol, City of 15,472 27 123 Shetland Islands 15,107 26 120

§ Mr. HendryTo ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will list, in descending order, the GDP per head of each(a) county council, (b) unitary and (c) metropolitan area by (i) actual amount and (ii) percentage of the area with the highest GDP in the last year for which figures are available.

Letter from John Kidgell to Mr. Charles Hendry, dated 30 October 2001:
633WThe National Statistician has been asked to reply to your recent question on local area estimates of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per head (10789). I am replying in his absence.The Office for National Statistics (ONS) does not produce estimates of GDP per head for the geographical breakdown requested. Instead, estimates are produced by Nomenclature of Units for Territorial Statistics (NUTS) areas. There are five levels of NUTS in the UK and GDP estimates are produced for the first three. NUTS level 3 is the geography that is most closely aligned to county councils, unitary authority and metropolitan areas and is also the lowest geographical level that data are available.GDP is a workplace measure of economic activity in a given area regardless of whether the persons engaged in the activity live in that area. GDP per head is calculated by using the resident population in the area. In the absence of another indicator this has been used as a measure of well being at the sub-regional and local area level. However, a better measure would be household income per head as this would be a truly residence based measure. This is not currently available but the ONS is planning to produce estimates of household disposable income for sub-region and local area in early 2002.Estimates of GDP per head and GDP per head as a proportion of the NUTS level 3 area with the highest GDP per head (Inner London-West) are shown in the following table. The GDP per head for Inner London - West is much larger than any other area due to the high amount of commerce in the area and a fairly small resident population in comparison, which makes proportionate comparisons on this basis more difficult. For this reason, I have additionally provided a third column, showing the same data on our more usual basis of comparison, GDP per head expressed as a ratio to the UK average. Some NUTS level 3 areas correspond exactly to county council boundaries and these are marked with the letters cc.634W635W
