Chris Ruane: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer how many people living in (a) Scotland, (b) England and (c) Wales in 2001 were born in Northern Ireland, broken down by age band. [57371]

John Healey: The information requested falls within the responsibility of the national statistician who has been asked to reply.

Letter from Colin Mowl, dated 13 March 2006:

The National Statistician has been asked to reply to your recent question asking how many people living in (a) Scotland, (b) England and (c) Wales in 2001 were born in Northern Ireland, broken down by age. I am replying in her absence. (57371)

The answers to this question can be obtained from the population censuses undertaken in England and Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland in 2001. This letter provides the information requested on England and Wales. All enquiries for Scottish 2001 Census data should be directed to the General Register Office Scotland.

A special analysis (known as C0643) has been run to identify the number of people living in England and Wales on Census day (29 April 2001) who were born in Northern Ireland, broken down by single year of age. This table has been placed in the House of Commons Library and can also be requested from 2001 Census Customer Services [e-mail]

Yours sincerely

Population Statistics

Mr. Drew: To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what his estimate is of the population of (a) Gloucestershire and (b) Stroud constituency; and what assessment he has made of the likely population growth in each area in each of the next 10 years. [57239]

John Healey: The information requested falls within the responsibility of the National Statistician, who has been asked to reply.

Letter from Colin Mowl, dated 13 March 2006:

The National Statistician has been asked to reply to your question regarding estimates of the population of (a) Gloucestershire and (b) the Stroud constituency and population growth in the next 10 years. I am replying in her absence. (57239)

The attached table provides the mid-2004 estimate of population, the latest available. The table also shows population projections and growth for Gloucestershire for mid-2005 to mid-2016. These projections are based on mid-2003 population estimates and are the latest projections available. They assume that local trends in fertility, mortality and migration over the reference period 1999 to 2003 will continue into the future. Therefore they may not be directly comparable with the mid-2004 population estimate.

The Office for National Statistics does not currently produce mid-year population estimates or projections by parliamentary constituency. The most recent population figure available for the Stroud parliamentary constituency is from the 2001 Census, and is 100,299 people.

Notes:
1. The population projections shown in this table are taken from the 2003-based subnational population projections, the latest set of projections currently available. Therefore they may not be directly comparable with the mid-2004 population estimate presented in the first row.
2. Figures are rounded to the nearest 100.
