Percentage main language is not English: Can speak English well - WMCA

This provides estimates of the percentage of usual residents aged 3 and over in England and Wales by their proficiency in English. The proficiency in English classification corresponds to the tick box response options on the census questionnaire. Estimates are used to help central government, local authorities and the NHS allocate resources and provide services for non-English speakers. It also helps public service providers effectively target the delivery of their services. For example, translation and interpretation services and material in alternative languages. Statistical Disclosure Control - In order to protect against disclosure of personal information from the Census, there has been swapping of records in the Census database between different geographic areas, and so some counts will be affected. In the main, the greatest effects will be at the lowest geographies, since the record swapping is targeted towards those households with unusual characteristics in small areas.Data is Powered by LG Inform Plus and automatically checked for new data on the 3rd of each month.

本数据集提供了英格兰和威尔士3岁及以上常住居民的英语水平百分比估计。英语水平分类与人口普查问卷中的复选框回答选项相对应。这些估计有助于中央政府、地方当局和英国国家卫生服务（NHS）分配资源，并为非英语母语人士提供服务。同时，也有助于公共服务提供商有效定位其服务目标。例如，翻译和口译服务以及提供多语言材料。统计披露控制——为了防止人口普查中个人信息的披露，已在人口普查数据库的不同地理区域之间进行记录交换，因此某些计数将受到影响。通常，影响最大的将是最低一级的地理区域，因为记录交换的目标是那些在小区域内具有不寻常特征的住户。数据由LG Inform Plus提供支持，并在每月的第三天自动检查新数据。
