The number of households where no adult aged 16 to 64 is in work has fallen for the second year in a row, official figures show.

The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said there were 3.7 million such households in the UK between April and June this year, or about 17.9% of all households.

That was down from 18.7% last year, about 3.85 million households.
