The Calendar Year Dataset 2022 is designed to enable timely cross-sectional analysis of individuals and households relating to the situation in 2022.
The dataset only includes variables that are collected in every wave, as the data files combine data collected in each of three waves analysis cannot be restricted to data collected in one wave during 2022, as this subset will not be representative of the population
