Should groups to which longer-term result indicators do not apply (e.g. children) be included in the representative sample?

Yes. Samples for longer-term result indicators (and indicators on rural and homelessness for the AIR to be submitted in 2017) have to be fully representative of the total population of participants at the level of the investment priority, and regarding employment status, age group, educational attainment and household situation.  There is no exception to this. All individuals counted as participants must be included in the population from which samples are drawn.
