Regional Trade Statistics
This is to allow additional time to resolve some issues identified in the merging of HMRC data with the Interdepartmental Business Register and to complete essential quality assurance. It has not been possible to resolve this issue with confidence in time for the scheduled release so HMRC has decided to delay publication of the Regional Trade Statistics and these will now be published on Thursday 12th October 2017. This impacts time series data published under the new allocation methodology, first published in December 2016. We will publish a revised back series, from 2013 onwards, alongside the Q2 release. The Overseas Trade Statistics is unaffected and will be published as planned on Friday 8th September 2017. If you have any questions relating to this announcement, please email

19 June 2017
Employee Share Schemes National Statistics
The next update of the Employee Share Schemes National Statistics based on 2015-16 data will be published on 30th June 2017. Due to issues with the supply of data on the Save As You Earn scheme (SAYE), it has not been possible to include 2015-16 information related to SAYE in this publication. SAYE data in tables 6.1 and 6.3 will therefore be missing from this publication, but all other tables will be unaffected. If you have any questions relating to this announcement, please email Shahida Begum at
[email protected]. The publication will be reissued once the data supply issue has been resolved. The exact date of publication will be announced on the statistics release calendar, not less than four weeks in advance.
