Did you know we have a dedicated powers and duties tool?
Available to LG Inform Plus subscribers, it provides information on what current legislation gives English and Welsh councils the power to do and what it requires them to do in law. Advanced searching and filtering options make it easy to find specific powers and duties based on legislation, business function and keyword, and results are easily exported in commonly used formats.

Population vaccination coverage - Meningococcal ACWY conjugate vaccine (MenACWY) (14-15 years old) (13667) Metric type
- Help text
- Local authority level vaccine coverage estimates for the school-based meningococcal ACWY adolescent vaccination programme for 14-15 year olds. The numerator is the total number of adolescents in LA responsible population whose 15th birthday falls within the time period who have ever received MenACWY vaccine and the denominator is the total number of adolescents attending school in LA plus adolescents resident in the LA not linked to any school whose 15th birthday falls within the time period multiplied by 100. Small numbers less than 5 are suppressed.
Caution should be exercised when comparing coverage figures over time due to occasional data quality issues reported by some data providers. Apparent trends could reflect changes in the quality of data reported as well as real changes in vaccination coverage. While this issue will be more apparent at the local level it may also have an impact on national figures. Similarly, some caution should also be exercised when comparing coverage between different areas where data quality issues have been reported. It is not possible for many local authorities that offer a predominately school-delivered programme to include data on MenACWY vaccine received in general practice. Consequently, some areas presented data that includes vaccinations given in both schools and GP settings while other areas have only presented data that includes school-delivered vaccinations. This would result in an underestimation in vaccine coverage in that local authority. The national coverage figure presented in this report overestimates coverage because it excludes missed cohorts and areas that have mixed models (GP and school delivery) and were unable to provide accurate GP level data, which likely have lower coverage. However, the number of areas unable to provide accurate estimates is small (<10) and will have a limited impact on national vaccine coverage. Local authority level data were validated and analysed by PHE to check data completeness and identify and query any anomalous results. Vaccine coverage only represents the percent vaccinated with MenACWY in local authorities that delivered the programme and denominators for areas that did not provide data are not included in the survey calculations.
