Request for the ethnic demographic profile of each age group in England and Wales

The request was successful.

Dear Office for National Statistics,

I would like statistics on the ethnic makeup of each age group in England and Wales as per the 2011 Census. The GOV.UK website has statistics on the age profiles of various ethnic groups on this page

https://www.ethnicity-facts-figures.serv...

However I would like the statistics for each group broken down by ethnicity, for example:

---
For the age group 0-4 years old: A% of people are Asian, B% are Black, C% are White,...
---
For the age group 5-9 years old: A% of people are Asian, B% are Black, C% are White,...
---
.
.
.

And so on for all age groups up to and including "Age 85 and over"

Yours faithfully,

Charles Henry
