2. Due to the classifications published by the Annual Population Survey, to allow comparison, the fishing data requires using the same age cohorts. To allow more detail on the ages cohort the breakdown used in Figure 2 are present in the rest of the report.

3. Due to respondents classifying themselves by a mixture of Scottish, English, Welsh, Northern Irish and British, analysis could not be undertaken at a UK regional level. All data in this report combines UK nationality as British.
