HC Deb 14 January 1994 vol 235 cc328-9W
Mr. Blunkett

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what are her Department's latest estimates for levels of mesothelioma over the next 30 years; and if she will make a statement.

Mr. Sackville

Information on the level of mesothelioma is not separately identified at present in Office of Population Censuses and Surveys figures. A review of the OPCS data collection is currently under way with a view to enabling separate identification.
