Confidentiality Policy

Information at datazone level has been disclosure controlled with data swapping in some datazones. Swapping data for a small percentage of records before producing the aggregate results at Local Authority level has a negligible effect on the overall trends, but ensures the confidentiality of individual records.

The full disclosure control policy for fire statistics can be found on the Scottish Government website
