The codes consist of a simple alphanumeric structure; the first three characters (ANN) represent the area entity (i.e. type; or category of geography) and the following six characters (NNNNNN) represent the specific area instance. The CHD provides multiple functionality including details of codes, relationships, hierarchies and archived data. The CHD can be used in conjunction with the Register of Geographic Codes (RGC) that summarises the range of area instances within each geographic entity. The GSS Coding and Naming policy for some statistical geographies was implemented on 1 January 2011. From this date, where new codes have been allocated they should be used in all exchanges of statistics and published outputs that normally include codes.

The changes are as follows: North Durham CCG move from STP E54000003 to E54000001. Therefore these two STPs have new codes: E54000045 (Durham, Darlington, Teesside, Hambleton, Richmondshire and Whitby) and E54000046 (Northumberland, Tyne and Wear and North Durham). Correction to the border between the West, North and East Cumbria STP and Lancashire and South Cumbria STP. Therefore these two STPs have new codes: E54000047 (West, North and East Cumbria) and E54000048 (Lancashire and South Cumbria). </span></p><p><span style='font-family: Symbol;mso-fareast-font-family:Symbol;mso-bidi-font-family:Symbol;color:windowtext'>·<span style='font-variant-numeric: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;'>      </span></span><span>One new lookup created in Constitutions - LSOA to CCG to STP lookup (as at 14/02/2017).</span></p><p><span style='font-family: Symbol;mso-fareast-font-family:Symbol;mso-bidi-font-family:Symbol;color:windowtext'>·<span style='font-variant-numeric: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;'>      </span></span><span>Administrative geographies updated with 2016 Standard Area Measurements. </span></p><p><span style='font-family: Symbol;mso-fareast-font-family:Symbol;mso-bidi-font-family:Symbol;color:windowtext'>·<span style='font-variant-numeric: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;'>      </span></span><span>Changes to the Information table.</span></p><font size='3'><b>Database Changes</b></font><p style='margin-left:0cm;text-indent:0cm;mso-list:none; tab-stops:14.2pt 1.0cm'> </p><p><span style='font-family: Symbol;mso-fareast-font-family:Symbol;mso-bidi-font-family:Symbol;color:windowtext'>·<span style='font-variant-numeric: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 7pt; line-height: normal; font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;'>      </span></span><span>Updates</span><span> to form design to account for February 2017 version have been made.</span></p></span></div>
