Footnotes

I am deeply indebted to Bill Wells of the Department of Business for the data underlying figure 2 and for very helpful discussions about these issues, both in the context of this article and over a number of years; and to Rebecca Endean of the Ministry of Justice. Neither of course has any responsibility for the analysis or conclusions.
