HC Deb 02 March 1981 vol 1000 c35W
Mr. Norman Hogg

asked the Secretary for State of Social Services if he will publish in the Official Report in tabular form details of some common risks to life in Great Britain, giving details of the cause of death, the number of deaths per year and the number of deaths per year per 100,000 people.

Sir George Young

My reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Eastleigh (Sir D. Price) on 2 June 1980—[Vol. 985, c. 557]—gave mortality rates from certain risks. In addition, more detailed statistics on deaths form all causes, including those from accidents, are published by the Register-General for England and Wales in the OPCS annual reference volume DH4, and by the Registrar-General for Scotland in his annual report—"Mortality Statistics".
