| Annotation | The Northern Ireland mid-year estimates (MYE) of population relate to the usually resident population as at 30 June each year, with the current MYE series based on the 1991 Census of Population. This article describes the thorough review of the MYE for Northern Ireland. No major problems have been identified with the current estimates, but a number of enhancements have been put in place. The new figures are consistent with a number of administrative data sources. The overall effect has been to revise the estimated Northern Ireland population by about 6,000, or between 0.3% and 0.4% for each year between 1991 and 1997. The revised estimates for Northern Ireland have been incorporated into the population figures for the UK included in the Table section of this issue of Population Trends. (RH). |
