Question to the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government:

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, how his Department calculated household projections provided in its publication, 2014-based household projections in England, 2014 to 2039.

The Department publishes a detailed description of the methodology used to calculate the household projections, which can be found here: https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/2014-based-household-projections-methodology

It should be noted that as of 23 January 2017, the responsibility for the household projections has been transferred to the Office for National Statistics, who are responsible for all future publications.
