Dear Department for Work and Pensions,

FOI2023/03377

Thank you for the information provided.

I have a query concerning Table 2, in which the figures are rounded to the nearest hundred. For example, East Dunbartonshire and East Renfrewshire consist of two columns filled with '100'.

This information is of no use in identifying trends.

If the figures have to be rounded, could they not be rounded to the nearest 10?

Yours faithfully,

J Roberts
