- The ONS Economic Forum discussed the state of the UK economy and labour market.
- Speakers presented on declining Labour Force Survey response rates, subdued UK GDP growth, strong earnings growth, and measures like real GDI and real income that provide a better view of economic welfare than GDP alone.
- Insights from the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings showed ongoing strong earnings inflation across sources, a rightward shift in the earnings distribution, and a record low in low-paying jobs in 2023.
Welcome to the monthly economic forum. Here we will be showcasing the latest economic and social developments with a wide range of analytic topics. Each month we will feature ‘State of the Economy’, providing a stocktake of the latest trends and developments.

Restarting the regular updates of the Measuring National Well-being dashboard in August 2022 celebrates not only, over 10 years since its creation, but its developments to date. This includes publishing alongside GDP and Climate change insights for the first time to more holistically measure progress in the UK. This milestone gives us an opportunity to reflect on the changes to society during this time and the original 34,000 responses which fed into its design and creation.
With an opening address by Sir Ian Diamond, the National Statistician, this event will launch a consultation to review the measures included in the dashboard and how we communicate these insights.

Presentations this month:
Energy spending by businesses
We present our analysis of businesses' energy spending from the Annual Business Survey 2019 and the Annual Purchases Survey 2018 and the resulting experimental measures of energy intensity. We present how energy intensity varies across and within industries, by energy type and firm size, and depending on the type of measure used.
Tightness in the labour market
We will be presenting analysis of various measures of labour market slack and the relationship between industry unemployment and vacancies.
At this seminar you will hear from Daniel Arribas-Bel who is a Professor in Geographic Data Science at the University of Liverpool, and Deputy Programme Director for Urban Analytics at the Alan Turing Institute. Daniel will be presenting on "Making it easy for regional scientists to consider (urban) form & function".
ONS Local has been established by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to support evidence-based decision-making at the local level. We aim to host insightful events that connect our users with exciting developments happening in subnational statistics and analysis at the ONS and across other organisations.
In April 2022, as the impact of increases in the Cost of Living really came to the forefront, Public Health & Communities, Suffolk County Council published a Cost of Living profile as part of the Joint Strategic Needs Assessment.
Alongside a written Cost of Living report ‘Making ends meet: The cost of living in Suffolk’, an interactive dashboard was also created using Power BI. In addition to internal data flows, publicly available data from sources such as the ONS have been used to provide a rich picture of the current situation for the local community.
The dashboard was developed in order to:
• Provide up to date data and information on the Cost of Living for Suffolk County Council, partner organisations, and members of the public.
• Deliver an interactive tool to allow users to focus on areas most relevant to them.
• Demonstrate that, while increases in the cost of living affect everyone, impact will be greatest for those who are already under financial pressure, exacerbating inequalities.
• Provide a source of actionable insight to support the system with the evidence base needed to support project development, drive change and really make a difference in the community.
Features of the dashboard:
• Place-focused - published at smaller geographies where possible
• Collaborative - Includes local data from across the system such as data shared by Citizens Advice and other system partners.
• Automated - Most data sources have automated connections, meaning there is little manual intervention required.
• Self-Service - Making the report publicly available puts data at the fingertips of colleagues, system partners and members of the public.
• Live - The dashboard is a living report which is frequently updated.
This session will:
• Provide a demonstration of Suffolk County Council’s Cost of Living dashboard
• Give an overview of data sources
• Explore opportunities for automation using Power BI
• Discuss how the data dashboard is used locally
This event is open to all; however, we anticipate it will be of most interest to anyone working on cost of living dashboards at the local level.

This presentation covers the key question: Why dashboards? Local authorities and other public bodies have largely ended publishing reports and now produce dashboards. What are the factors that have contributed to this change?
This is the first presentation from our Workshop on 21 September 2023 on Dashboards, APIs and PowerBI.
ONS Local has been established by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) to promote evidence-based decision-making at the local level. We aim to host insightful workshops which will provide practical, technical support to help users make the most of ONS data. The Cross-Government Data Science Community brings together data scientists and analysts to build data science capability across the UK governments and public sector.
We are delighted to welcome you to our inaugural Workshop in our new series, entitled: 'How to use APIs'. The session will cover what Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are, the advantages in using them and a practical demonstration of how they can be used. The journey of two Local Authority analysts as they begin using APIs in place of manual processes will be showcased to the audience. The session will conclude by explaining the plan for the forthcoming series of Workshops that will begin in September and introducing the Slack channel that ONS Local and Cross-Government DS community will be using to support users' technical questions going forward.
This event is open to all; however, we anticipate it will be of most interest to anyone working at a local level on creating data dashboards for internal or external use.

From 1 August 2019, the Secretary of State for Education delegated responsibility for the commissioning, delivery and management of London’s Adult Education Budget (AEB) to the Mayor of London. The AEB helps Londoners to get the skills they need to progress both in life and work. The overarching aim of London’s AEB is to make adult education in London even more accessible, impactful and locally relevant.
In this presentation, the Greater London Authority will be going through the results of the pioneering 2021/22 London Learner Survey (LLS). The survey’s objective is to gain insight into the outcomes of learners to inform and improve policy. The LLS consists of two linked surveys of learners who participated in GLA-funded Adult Education Budget (AEB) learning in the academic year 2021/22.
In the LLS, Learners are surveyed prior to and 5-7 months after completing their course to estimate the economic and social changes that learners experience following an AEB course.
In particular, the presentation will show the economic impact broken down by:
. Progression into employment
. Progression within work
. Progression into further learning.
The social impact will be explored by looking at changes in:
. Health and wellbeing
. Improved self-efficacy
. Improved social integration
. Participation in volunteering
The presentation will also cover how outcomes vary by funding type, breaking down the results by Community Learning and Adult Skills.
This event is open to all; however, we anticipate it will be of most interest to anyone working at a local level on skills, education and employment.

Education and qualifications have been included as a separate analysis topic in Census for the first time in 2021. In this presentation the Census 2021 Education Analysis team will go through the results from the first two publications in their Analysis Plans, focusing on their impact and use for local authorities and other local users.
In the first publication published on 17th February 2023, 'How workforce qualification levels differ across England and Wales', the analysis looked at qualifications in the workforce population (adults aged 16 years and over who are economically active). The piece focused on trends across local authorities, exploring themes including the North-South divide, coastal towns and regional inequality.
The second publication examines the variations in the levels of qualifications that people hold by their country of birth. This includes establishing patterns across UK geographies for international migrants.
The session included live demonstrations of the interactive maps used in the publications, and how the data can be used by local authorities.
This recording is open to all, however we anticipate it will be of most interest to anyone working at a local level on skills, education and employment.

Have you ever wondered which local authorities are similar to each other? This presentation discusses cluster analysis ONS has published to draw insight into which local authorities are performing in a similar way against key policy themes, promoting greater joined up working between local authorities with similar characteristics to address common problems they face. Our analysis also provides local authorities with control groups for investigating the impact of policy interventions.
In this webinar, we will cover the methods used to create our outputs, demonstrate some of our findings in our interactive visualisation tool and present information on our future plans to expand on this work.
This event is open to all, however we anticipate it will be of most interest to anyone working at a local level, or with data on the policy themes of economy, transport connectivity, education, skills, health and wellbeing.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

LFS Achieved Person Interviews
@ONSfocus #ONSEconForum slido #11806
6. What we’ve done and what we have planned
• Publications for October and November:
• Vast majority of LFS-based labour market statistics and LFS microdata suspended for October and November pub'ns
• Table X10 published, setting out adjusted experimental headline levels and rates by age and, from November, region
and country
• Adjustments use HMRC PAYE RTI and Claimant Count data to proxy movements in employment and unemployment,
respectively
• November 2 – Set out planned improvements to LFS across both collection and methodology
• Assess impacts ahead of December publication with a view to potentially resuming publication of LFS statistics
• Replacing the LFS with the Transformed Labour Force Survey – aiming for March 2024
Collection
• Returning to face-to-face interviews for waves 1 and 2
• Additional household recontacting – revisiting a further
1,200 households per week
• Prioritising responses from households containing
people aged 16-24
• Reintroduction of the sample boost
Methodology
• Incorporating the latest population estimates into the
LFS weighting – testing ongoing
• Improving the non-response bias adjustment
• Using model-based approaches to provide
corroborating evidence and test improvements

14. Key points
• Latest data suggest a subdued picture for UK economic activity,
with high monthly volatility but modest growth over the past year
• Inflation continues to fall, helped by lower gas and electricity
charges and easing manufacturing and services producer prices
• Though there may be some fiscal space this year, recent forecasts
suggest that the outlook is relatively challenging
• The Bank of England's monetary tightening cycle has not yet fully
fed through to the real economy

Gross Domestic
Product and economic
welfare
Graeme Chamberlin
@ONSfocus #ONSEconForum slido #11806
16. Introduction
• Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP): a measure of the volume of total output produced
in a particular country.
• Its limitations as a measure of welfare or wellbeing are widely acknowledged.
• Present two measures – which the ONS already publish in some form – which adjust GDP
to give a greater focus on welfare:
• Real Gross Domestic Income (GDI): a measure of the purchasing power of GDP.
• Real Income: a measure that is linked to the level of sustainable consumption.
@ONSfocus #ONSEconForum slido #11806
17. Real GDI
• Q. How do we derive volume (real) measures of GDP?
• A. The Geary Method – deflate each component by its own price index
• The terms of trade – the ratio of a country’s export prices to import prices (PX/ PM).
• Changes in the t-o-t have no effect on real GDP – but is this true for welfare?
• Real GDI = Real GDP + T
• Terms of trade effect (T): deflate exports with the imports price index (PM).
• Terms of trade effect: T = X(1/PM – 1/PX)
• Real GDI reflects the purchasing power of a nation’s output (Command-basis GDP).
@ONSfocus #ONSEconForum slido #11806
18. Real GDP versus Real GDI
Real GDP and Real GDI growth (%) Differences in growth and the terms of trade
@ONSfocus #ONSEconForum slido #11806
19. Real Income
• A measure of income that is related to current and future consumption opportunities:
Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
Net Domestic Product (NDP)
Net National Income (NNI)
Net National Disposable Income (NNDI)
Real Income
1. Exclude consumption of fixed capital (depreciation)
2. Add net income from the Rest of the World…
… and net transfers
3. Use the consumption deflator to value
NNDI in consumption units

23. Future developments
• SNA 2025: considering a proposal to extend net measures of economic activity to also
include the depletion of natural resources.
• UK inclusive income: Estimates of economic progress which encompass a broader range
of economic activities and assets than gross domestic product (GDP) does.

25. Why look at ASHE?
Lots of interest in domestic inflationary pressures, given the
tight labour market.
ASHE is our highest quality comprehensive survey on earnings.
It is based on a sample of 1% of employees in the UK. The
achieved sample for 2023 was 156,000.
We can look at changes in the level and composition of earnings
and distributional impacts, including earnings inequality.

Salaries Survey, HMRC Pay As You Earn Real Time Information.

32. Key takeaways from ASHE 2023
Distribution of earnings continues shifting rightwards.
Earnings gap between the highest and lowest earners
has narrowed in the last decade, and 2023 saw a record low
proportion of low paid employee jobs.
Unadjusted gender pay gap had been falling since 2011 but is
flatter in recent years. The gap is larger for women aged 40+.

35. @ONSfocus #ONSEconForum slido #11806
Regional consumer card spending trends 2019 to 2023
• This is the first article based on the ONS collaboration with Visa.
ONS receives aggregated monthly data showing spend at postal
sectors across the UK.
• Overall, average spend per cardholder rose 17% between June
2019 and June 2023.
• While spending fell during periods of national restrictions
because of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, spending
overall has recovered to pre-pandemic levels.
• Since the start of the pandemic, rural postal areas have
consistently had the highest face-to-face spend relative to spend
in 2019.
• Next we aim to transform the data to local authority districts and
produce more analysis on the distances travelled for different
types of spending, tourism and the CoL impacts on different parts
of the economy
