Letter from Joe Grice, dated 8 December 2008:
The National Statistician has been asked to reply to your recent question asking the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, what the average quarterly household expenditure on electricity, gas and other fuels was in each region in England in each year since 1997. I am replying in her absence. (240880)
The tables below provide estimates of average expenditure on electricity, gas and other fuels for each region in England. Figures have been provided both in current prices, and adjusted for general inflation (shown here in 2007 prices). The figures are based on those published each year in Family Spending, the annual report on the Expenditure and Food Survey:
Regional estimates published in Family Spending are based on regional sub-samples of the Expenditure and Food Survey. Due to the smaller size of these sub-samples, regional estimates are generally based on data collected over three years. However in some years, changes to the survey meant that this was not possible, and regional estimates were produced using data collected over one or two years.
