The ONS is keen to establish a long term, small area geography policy which will be used for Census 2011 and Neighbourhood Statistics. The aim is to support the production of coherent and useful data that can be used with confidence by all organisations.
The consultation paper is available online. This describes all policy proposals, the background to them, and a number of attendant issues. Please take the time to get involved by responding to the survey and joining in the debate around the blog posts.

National Park Boundaries

Hi Rachel
With regard to your final question all I can suggest is that you allocate COA population weighted centroids to National Park boundaries using GIS. Alternatively, if you have access to OS Address Point you could use this to work out which COAs prodominently fall within the NP boundaries (but this may take more time) again you would need a GIS to do this.
Hope this helps?
