and denotes the customers where that variable is missing. In this case, it is where
information relating to a person’s residence is missing, most commonly their postcode.</p><ol><li>The
expenditure data in these statistics covers payments directly to individuals and employers,
as well as to assessment providers and the Mental Health Support Service.</li><li>The
expenditure data in these statistics does not include DWP’s staffing and operational
costs relating to Access to Work.</li><li>Real terms expenditure (where actual spending
has been adjusted to remove the effects of general price level changes (inflation)
over time using price levels from a base year) has been calculated using the Consumer
Prices Index published by the Office for National Statistics. Real terms figures provide
a more meaningful measurement of change over time.</li><li>Expenditure figures have
been calculated using a methodology consistent with that used in the published Access
to Work statistics. Please see the background information and methodology note for
more information, in particular the “Weighting” section on pages 8-9. <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/access-to-work-statistics-background-information-and-methodology"

to Work expenditure for each country is based on residency of the beneficiary as opposed
to place of work.</li><li>Figures are rounded to the nearest £1,000 due to the weighting
methodology used (see Note 4).</li></ol><p> </p>
