AnnotationThis is a continuous, multi-purpose survey based on a sample of the general population resident in private households in Great Britain, however, this is the last one in this series to be available as hard copy. Key findings in this edition look at the following areas: Households, families and people; Housing and consumer durables; Marriage and cohabitation; Occupation and personal pension schemes; General health and use of health services; Alcohol consumption and Smoking. Interviewers collected information from 20,149 adults aged 16 and over in 8,620 households. This edition has a chapter which is a summary of the main changes that the survey has measured between 1971 and 2002. Further information about the General Household Survey (GHS) series can be found in the open entry under its title "Living in Britain". The GHS will continue to be available online at the ONS website but in a different style and published by Palgrave Macmillan; this edition therefore is the last in the current format. (KJ).
