Source: DCMS based on Office for National Statistics Annual Business Inquiry except:



  1  Due to changes in the SIC (2003), data from 2003 are not entirely consistent with previous years.

  2  Creative Industry Mapping Document 1998.

  3  Turnover of Design Consultancies. Design Industry Valuation Survey, British Design Initiative.

  These figures are used since, due to design not being separately identifiable in official sources, no GVA data is available. These figures may be an imprecise estimate of GVA for a number of reasons:

  (i)  Turnover is being used in place of GVA. A turnover figure will always be greater than a corresponding GVA figure.

  (ii)  Relevant to overall total figures, there may be some overlap in statistics with other of the creative industries.

  (iii)  However, by contrast, the figures will under represent all design activity since design within large companies is not distinguished in official statistics from companies' main business, eg design in production companies. NB All businesses' design-related expenditure was estimated at £26.7 billion in 2000 in a study for the Design Council.
