20 20 GBTS July 2015 Published 27 th October 2015 Note about these results: The GB Tourism Survey is a survey of British residents, in which 2000 respondents are interviewed each week, making a total of 100,000 each year. Any respondent having taken one or more overnight trips in the previous 4 week period is asked to describe the details of trips taken. Each year, data from around 17,000 trips is collected, and this is subsequently grossed up to provide population estimates. Full details of the survey methodology can be found at: https://www.visitengland.com/sites/default/files/banner-images/gbts_2013_- _methods_performance_report_v2.pdfhttps://www.visitengland.com/sites/default/files/banner-images/gbts_2013_- _methods_performance_report_v2.pdf On an annual basis, the survey is extremely robust, with a confidence level for England data at +/- 3% at the 95% level for the number of trips and nights measured, and +/- 4% for the expenditure figure. For shorter time periods and for other subsets of the data such as region or trip purpose, the margin of error is wider – guidance on confidence intervals at national and regional level for annual and quarterly data is provided on the next page.
