This syntax is referenced in Volume 3 (current Variable Details) of the LFS User Guide (page 42 in the 2013 edition, page 47 in the 2011 edition) as follows:<br> <br> "In April 2009, there was a reorganisation of local government that created nine new unitary authorities (UAs). Five of these UAs were created from existing county councils and their district councils. The remaining four were created by splitting Cheshire and Bedfordshire into two - each along existing district council boundaries. All nine unitary authorities will, therefore, be aggregates of existing local authorities. To apply these changes to back data syntax can be used to recode the above variables into new variables representing these new classifications. This syntax can be obtained by contacting the UK Data Archive. This syntax will need to be used for all files up to AJ10 data. From AJ10 data onwards we will be producing quarterly datasets with the new UA variables on them."<br> <br> While the data files are subject to Special Licence Access, the syntax file is subject to standard End User Licence (EUL) access conditions, as it does not contain any data, only SPSS command syntax code. <br> <br> Users should note that the syntax is of use only to users of the Special Licence Access LFS and APS studies, as the standard EUL versions do not contain UA/LA geographic variables.<br> <br><B>Main Topics</B>:<BR>Syntax to convert pre-2009 UA/LA area classifications into post-2009 area classifications.
