Publication Hub (http://www.statistics.gov.uk/) is an “index” to what is available and links through to other sites when necessary.
ONS (http://www.ons.gov.uk/) only shows reports since 2008 even if there are earlier editions. Use the Publication Hub to search for the report title/series. Once you have found an edition of the title click on “Current and past editions” to see the list of editions available. Then click on the relevant report.
