### Lot Information

CON-18-022 Financial Lives Programme of Research and Reporting

The first two waves of the survey, conducted in 2016/7 and 2019/20, were undertaken using a combination of online and in-home interviewing. The aim of the in-home survey was to ensure those offline or in some way digitally excluded were represented in the survey. The Covid pandemic necessitated a change in survey methodology in 2022, with large-scale in-home interviewing not possible. The in-home survey was replaced with a telephone survey.
