Changed the title of 1 of the data tables from ‘Tables: number of children in out-of-work benefit households by output area, age and benefit type’, to ‘Tables: number of children in out-of-work benefit households by output area and age'. The table was incorrectly titled because DWP does not provide a breakdown by benefit type for output areas. No changes to the data have been made.
