To ask the Scottish Government when the Registrar General for Scotland will publish the next results from the 2022 Census.
I have asked Janet Egdell, Chief Executive of National Records of Scotland to respond. Her response is as follows:
National Records of Scotland have today published: 2022 results | Scotland's Census (scotlandscensus.gov.uk).
Scotland’s Census results are designated as Accredited Official Statistics and form an integral part of the statistical system in the UK. The Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR), the independent regulatory arm of the UK Statistics Authority – Statistics for the Public Good, awards Accredited Official Statistics designation based on the quality, good practice and comprehensiveness of official statistics.
More detail about the schedule for future reports can be found here. Census outputs schedule | Scotland's Census (scotlandscensus.gov.uk).
