Notes on the text

The full text of the report (including the Appendices) is online.

The formatting of the text (bold, italics, centred etc) is a reasonably accurate representation of the printed version. However, please note that the pages presented here are not exact facsimiles of the original printed version: the font (Times, Arial etc) and size of print - and therefore the number of words to a line and lines to a page - are determined by the settings you have chosen for your web browser.

I've corrected a handful of misprints and a few spelling inconsistencies. Anything added by way of explanation is shown [in square brackets].

In Appendices 7 and 8 the tables are shown as links: clicking on one opens the relevant table in a new window.
