Before you quote this

Each of these is measured from the data rather than written down, so it stays true as the data changes.

4 of 459 areas are withheld by the producer. Most commonly: Not published

The producer states no release date for each period, so publication dates here are derived from the period end plus its typical lag. They are approximate and labelled as such wherever they appear.
