MPs are target audience but researchersand general public will also be able to download and view on their iPads. The app will be free to download from the Apple iTunes Store. iPad only for v1.0.
Constituency datasetsThe information was only on the parliamentary intranet (the old Library intranet). Uses publicly available data from ONS and Dept for Work and Pensions, but tailored for 650 UK constituencies. http://hcl1.hclibrary.parliament.uk/sections/Stats/profiles/btf/profile.asp
The data only seen by those with the Parliamentary intranet or by ringing or emailing a research specialist. Cannot compare datasets and some information only available via downloadable Excel spreadsheets.
