dc.description<P>Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.</P>The <i>Opinions and Lifestyle Survey</i>, formerly known as <i>ONS Opinions Survey</i> or <i>Omnibus</i>, is a regular, multi-purpose survey which was carried out in eight months of the year from 1990 until April 2005, when it began to run monthly. Following the 'Fit for Future' consultation carried out by ONS at the beginning of 2014, the decision was taken to revert to running the survey in eight months of the year only; therefore from April 2014 the survey does not run in March, June, September or December. The study was originally set up to meet the needs of government departments for a survey that used short and simple sets of questions, had greater statistical reliability than private sector omnibus surveys and a properly designed random sample. Now, however, an increasing number of academics are finding it a valuable research tool.<br /><br /> The <i>Opinions and Lifestyle Survey</i> is used for a number of purposes, for example: <ul><li>to provide quick answers to questions of immediate interest <li>to provide information on topics that do not require a full survey <li>to develop and pilot questions for other surveys <li>to sift for subgroups that can be followed up in another survey</ul> From April 2012 the <i>ONS Opinions Survey</i> changed its name to the <i>Opinions and Lifestyle Survey</i> following the merger of the non-EU-SILC questions from the General Lifestyle Survey. <br /><br /> <b><i>Secure Access Opinions and Lifestyle Survey data</b></i><br /> Some Opinions modules, covering disability, general lifestyle, religion, non-resident parental contact, contact after separation, cervical cancer screening, contraception, illness and activity limitation, are only available under Secure Access conditions. See <a href="https://discover.ukdataservice.ac.uk/series/?sn=2000043" title="Opinions and Lifestyle Survey: Secure Access">Opinions and Lifestyle Survey: Secure Access</a> for details. <br /><br />en
dc.description<B>Main Topics</B>:<BR>Each month's questionnaire consists of two elements: core questions, covering demographic information, are asked each month together with non-core questions that vary from month to month.en
dc.descriptionThe non-core questions for this month were:<br> Tobacco consumption (Module 210): this module was asked on behalf of HM Revenue and Customs to help estimate the amount of tobacco consumed as cigarettes. Due to the potentially sensitive nature of the data within this module, cases for respondents aged under 18 have been removed.<br> Legal services (Module MBT): this module was asked on behalf of the Ministry of Justice. It is designed to find out about people’s use of legal services for personal matters only.<br> Breast cancer screening (Module MBV): this module was asked on behalf of the NHS Breast Screening Programme and is designed to find out women’s opinions on where they think is the best place for mammograms to be held.<br> Parking (Module MBX): this module was asked on behalf of the Department for Transport and the questions relate to transport issues.<br>en
