Teenage Pregnancy
Richard Burden:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many girls resident in Birmingham, Northfield registered (a) the conception and (b) the birth of a child before the age of 16 years in each year since 1997. [19390]
Ruth Kelly:
The information requested falls within the responsibility of the National Statistician. I have asked him to reply.
Letter from Len Cook to Mr. Richard Burden, dated 30 November 2001:
As National Statistician I am replying to your recent question on the number of girls resident in Birmingham, Northfield that registered the conception and birth of a child before the age of 16 years, in each year since 1997 (19389).
There is no requirement to register conceptions in England and Wales. Estimates are however produced by the Office for National Statistics, based on registrations of births and notifications of abortions performed under the Abortion Act (1967). The available figures for estimated conceptions and registered livebirths under 16 for residents of Northfield Parliamentary Constituency since 1997 are given in the table:
Number of conceptions and livebirths under age 16. Residents of Birmingham Northfield Parliamentary Constituency. 19972000

House Sales
David Wright:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what the average cost of charges to (a) sell and (b) buy a house has been in each of the last five years broken down by region. [18911]

Letter from Len Cook to Mr. David Wright, dated 30 November 2001:
As National Statistician I have been asked to reply to your recent question on the average cost of charges when buying and selling a house in each of the last five years broken down by region (18911).
Available estimates are of average weekly expenditure on fees for moving house and are shown in the attached table. They are from the Family Expenditure Survey and are for the United Kingdom. Two figures are shown for each year, the first averaged over all households and the second averaged just over the households who had any expenditure on moving house fees.
Like all estimates from sample surveys these figures are subject to sampling variability. This is particularly high for an item such as moving house fees because the sample of households who incur such expenditure is small and the amounts they spend cover a wide range. For this reason it is not possible to give reliable breakdowns by region or for buying and selling separately.

Census
Mr. Clifton-Brown:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer when he expects all 2001 Census forms to be (a) processed and (b) analysed. [19879]
Ruth Kelly:
The information requested falls within the responsibility of the National Statistician. I have asked him to reply.
Letter from John Pullinger to Mr. Geoffrey Clifton-Brown, dated 30 November 2001:
The National Statistician and Registrar General for England and Wales has been asked to reply to your recent question on when all 2001 Census forms are expected to be (a) processed and (b) analysed. I am replying in his absence (19879).
The processing of the 2001 Census is being carried out in two main phases. Our main contractors Lockheed Martin are scheduled to capture, code and deliver data on an area-by-area basis over the period September 2001 to April 2002.
On delivery to ONS, the data for each area is then subject to a complex set of 'downstream' computing and manual activities, which ultimately create a full and final database of Census records from which all national and local area Census outputs can be generated, and which is expected to be completed by the end of June 2002.
3 Dec 2001 : Column: 60W
The 2001 mid-year national and local authority population estimates based on the final Census area counts are scheduled to be published in August 2002, and the first key analyses from the census itself to be released by the end of December 2002. Further, more detailed, analyses will continue throughout 2003.
