This study was the fourth in a series of national surveys of ethnic minorities. The main objectives were:

  • to assess changes over time through comparisons with other work
  • to show how the position of ethnic minority groups is related to the social and ethnic compositions of the areas in which they live
  • to explore diversity among different ethnic minority groups
  • to describe perceptions and experience of racial discrimination and social harassment

Topics covered include household structure, neighbourhoods and quality of housing, education, employment, health, racial harassment and discrimination, and ethnic identity.
