Visits by country from the International Passenger Survey are subject to error and should be treated with an element of caution. As with all sample surveys, statistical reliability is reduced when results are based on responses from only a small number of people.
Personal Savings
Mrs. Maria Miller:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what the savings ratio was for (a) men and (b) women in each of the last 10 years. [140440]
Mr. Timms:
The information requested falls within the responsibility of the National Statistician who has been asked to reply.
Letter from Dennis Roberts, dated 4 June 2007:
The National Statistician has been asked to reply to your recent Parliamentary Question on the savings ratio for men and women in the last ten years. I am replying in her absence. (140440)
We are unable to provide the saving ratios, broken down by gender. The following table shows the households saving ratio for the whole of the UK.

The estimates of the households saving ratio are national accounts series for the combined household and non-profit institutions serving households (NPISH) sectors. Estimates for households alone are not available. NPISHs are legal entities which are principally engaged in the production of non-market services for households and whose main resources are voluntary contributions by households. Examples of NPISHs are: charities; relief and aid organisations; educational establishments; trade unions; professional associations, political parties and religious organisations, and sports clubs and associations.
Further data are available from table A40 in United Kingdom Economic Accounts which is available at the following address:
Pre-School Education: Finance
Ms Buck:
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer (1) how much was allocated to each English local education authority for nursery education grant in each of the last three years; [138688]
(2) what percentage of each English local education authoritys nursery education grant was passed on the providers in each of the last three years; [138689]
(3) what percentage of each English local education authority's nursery education grant was withheld for central administration of support in each of the last three years. [138690]
Beverley Hughes:
I have been asked to reply.
From 2003-04 to 2005-06, school and early years funding was distributed to LAs through School Formula Spending Share (SFSS). Table 1 shows the funding allocation in £ millions for early years for each local authority in 2004-05 and 2005-06. Figures for spend on early years in 2004-05 and 2005-06 are not available.
Funding for nursery education provision is now provided to local authorities through the Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) alongside that for all pre-16 learning, but is not separately identified. Local authoritiesin consultation with their School Forums are responsible for deciding how best to apply their total school and early years funding across all age groups and between different types of provider, based on an assessment of local circumstances.
