## Description

ONS has developed an online time diary, with which to collect a regular online time use survey \(and has done so in 3 waves between 2020 and 2021\)\. This new data will help the ONS to capture further information about the UK economy and aspects of day to day life in the UK which is otherwise unrecorded\. For this purpose, ONS require a sample of individuals to complete the online time use survey or a modal alternative \(e\.g\., telephone interviewer\) substitute diary for those without internet access or who prefer not to access online surveys\. It is important to ensure UK Representability, through a probability-based sampling approach\.
