Lord Taylor of Holbeach

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Further to the Written Answer by the Housing Minister, Caroline Flint, on 7 July (Official Report, House of Commons, 1355W), whether the sample responding to questions about eco-towns was broadly representative of socio-economic groups across England, taking into account that it was an online panel. [HL5660]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Communities and Local Government
(Baroness Andrews)

I refer the noble Lord to the Answer given to the honourable Member for Harborough on Monday 7 July (Official Report, col. 1355W). A copy of the background dataset has been placed in the Library, which outlines the socio-economic make-up of the sample.
