1. Figures for 2009 were adjusted to exclude 1,240 dwellings which had been transferred from the Council Tax system to the Non-Domestic Rates system in Highland. For 2008 and before, figures for Highland were adjusted to exclude 1,688 dwellings which had been included in error in the past, as they had been transferred from the Council Tax system to the Non-Domestic Rates system. These dwellings were mainly caravans and holiday lets, which were let out for more than 140 days per year, are now classed as businesses rather than dwellings. In previous years, these dwellings were included in these figures as vacant dwellings (which are unoccupied and exempt from paying Council Tax). Figures from 2007 and before have been adjusted by the same amount to provide consistency over time.
2. Figures on dwellings for North Ayrshire Council Tax returns were adjusted 2002 and 2003, following a manual check of Council Tax discounts by the Council in 2004. The revised figures were first produced for the "Estimates of households and dwellings in Scotland, 2007" publication
