Table A2 shows the composition of the sample obtained, giving details for the 294
cases where it was possible to classify the case to a specific line of activity (a small number
of questionnaires were returned anonymously and could not be assigned to a particular line
of activity). What can be seen is that the 294 returns are distributed across the lines of
activity in very much the same proportions as the 1,500 firms to whom the questionnaire
was issued (the table shows slightly less than 1,500 firms because it was not possible in
every case to identify the line of activity to which the firm should be classified). We are
therefore confident that we have a random and representative sample from the population
of interest.
