    Remarks:

    The research, which also had a qualitative component (comprising 234 interviews and 40 focus group participants in five locations, and 211 practitioners attending five knowledge exchange workshops), mostly replicated a previous study undertaken for the Home Office in 1999-2001; 201 organizations responded to both the 2000 and 2010-11 surveys.
