Abstract

The use made of the official population projections and the derivative household and labour supply projections has been investigated recently in England through a survey of user and potential user organizations. In view of the rather complex arrangements for producing the official projections, the paper begins by providing a summary of what projections are prepared and by whom. Further background material on the methodology of the survey is given in the second section. The main part of the paper presents an analysis of the results of the survey, the third, fourth and fifth sections respectively being concerned with who uses the projections, the factors influencing the use and value of projections and the demands for an extension of the current service. The consultant's recommendations are summarized in the sixth section and some more general conclusions are presented at the end.
