*Due to incompatibilities between Scottish NUTS3 and LAU1 regions, we have replaced Scottish NUTS3 regions with a single NUTS3 region for each underlying LAU1 region.
** Starting with the 2020.1 datarun, Lightcast changed our Nation, Country, and LAU1 codes from the now-defunct Standard Names and Codes (SNAC) codes to the current standard used by the ONS: Government Statistical Service (GSS) 9-character codes.
*** Prior to the 2019.1 datarun, we used a modified version of SIC 2007 in which public administration codes 64, 65, 66, and 84. lacked 3 or 4-digit detail.
