Household and the Environment Survey (HES): 3881

Question

A patron found the publication "Households and the environment 1994" (11-526) and is interested in the data which were used for this publication, which appears to be the Household(s) (and the) Environment Survey (HES) conducted in 1991 and 1994 (and again earlier this year). Any chance that they might be made available under DLI?

Answer

These files are already present on the FTP site, though it is not obvious.

The Household and Environment Survey was released as part of the Survey of Consumer Finances HIFE component:
