Scottish Household Survey - Survey Review 2010

The Scottish Household Survey (SHS) is a long running Scottish Government survey designed to provide accurate, up-to-date information about the composition, characteristics, attitudes and behaviours of Scottish households and individuals on a range of issues.  There is a particular focus on information to inform government policy on communities, local government and transport.

An SHS Survey Review Project 2010 has been set up to assess the uses made of the survey with the primary aim of assessing the achieved benefits, quality and continued need for the survey and to maximise the benefits through appropriate question and topic content.  We are keen to engage with the broad-based user community - from the past, present and potentially the future of the survey – to better understand user
requirements in how to best shape the survey going forward.

A web-based survey has been set up to ask about your experiences of using the SHS, how well it meets your needs at the moment and how you think it could be improved in the future.  Your responses will help us to improve the quality of information the SHS collects and help us to improve the service we provide to all of our users.

We do appreciate the many demands on your time, and hope you will be able to spare 10 minutes to assist us by completing the survey. You can complete the survey using the following link:

The survey will be open to respondents until Friday 29 January 2010.

If you have any questions about the web-based survey or questions regarding the SHS in general please contact Hugh Munro in the SHS Project Team.
