When using a figure
Record the indicator name, units, reference year, source and revision notes. A recently visited page may contain data from an earlier year. Compare figures only when definitions and periods are compatible.
We do not relabel old archive statistics as current data. Check the source for downloads, metadata and permitted reuse.
