Notes
1 - Non-fatal casualty data from 2009-10 onwards cannot be compared to previous years. This is due to a change in the recording of non-fatal casualties - see section 6.5.2 ii for details
2 - Figures for primary fires prior to 2009-10 are based on sample data weighted to (former) Fire and Rescue Service totals
3- Dwellings data from 'Housing Statistics for Scotland - Key Information and Summary Tables' at: http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Topics/Statistics/Browse/Housing-Regeneration/HSfS/KeyInfoTables
