Data tables show the number of businesses, employment and turnover, in each category, broken down by the number of employees. Table 1 shows private sector, Table 2 shows Whole Economy - i.e. private sector / Government / non-profit, Table 3 shows companies / sole proprietorships / partnerships, and Tables 4-7 show breakdowns by the Standard Industrial Classification, with 7 being the most detailed. Where regional data are available, they appear in Tables 8 to 24.
