2  Break in time-series. Until 2007 the number of man-years was collected by use of summary questionnaires. From 2007 the figures are collected from the IPLOS-register. Figures from 2007 and later are thus not directly comparable with figures from preceding years. Includes number of users from 2006 when municipality have not been able to deliver IPLOS-data.
