Sutton - 2001 Census Data

Sutton 2001 Census Results

The Member of Parliament for Sutton and Cheam, Paul Burstow, has begun a search for 101 Sutton residents who have gone missing.

He has written to the Office for National Statistics to seek an explanation for a discrepancy in the Census figures published for the borough.

In the national statistics section of the Census, Sutton is shown as having a total population of 179,768. However in the age breakdown section, the borough is shown as having a population of 179,667 - 101 fewer people.

Paul Burstow MP said:

"The Census is an authoritative survey of the country's population, and it is important that it should not contain discrepancies or the credibility of the Census is undermined. "

"We value all our residents, so I've written to the Office for National Statistics who carried out the 2001 Census to ask for an explanation for our missing residents.
