National Income: Sikhs

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, what estimate she has made of the contribution of the Sikh population to GDP.

Answered by James Murray

The Office for National Statistics is responsible for producing estimates of Gross Domestic Product. However, GDP data do not allow conclusions to be drawn on the impact of specific religious or ethnic demographics, and it is not therefore possible to observe the contribution of the Sikh population to GDP from this data.
