This discussion paper consists of Chapter 7 of the thesis and appendices C and D. It is concerned with the data used in the time series model. Each set of statistics is described as regards source, working methods employed to put the data into a suitable form and the reliability of each set. Graphical illustrations of the main data sets are given along with some discussion. The actual data estimates are contained in an appendix.
