6.6 Apply a marginal threshold of 1 – 10 and cell threshold of 1 – 10 to all tabulations.
6.7 (0 < n < 11 suppressed).
6.8 To protect against secondary disclosure, suppress additional cells to ensure the primary suppressed small value cannot be recalculated.
6.9 Suppression of percentages that can be used to recalculate a small number is also required.
6.10 Use aggregation to prevent small numbers but allow reporting of data. Age ranges are a very good example of where aggregation can be used to avoid small numbers but avoid suppressing data (see example below).
