Letter from Caron Walker:
As Director General for the Office for National Statistics (ONS), I have been asked to reply to your Parliamentary Question asking the Minister for the Cabinet Office, what the estimated annual change in the level of household (a) borrowing and (b) debt was between 2008 and 2013 in Mid Sussex constituency (189837).
The Office for National Statistics publishes details of the financial liabilities of households and non-profit institutions serving households (NPISH) combined. These data are only available at the United Kingdom level and hence data are not available for Mid Sussex constituency.
The UK data are published in the UK Economic Accounts for Quarter 3 published on 20 December 2013 which is available at:
