§ Mr. Baldryasked the Secretary of State for Social Services what statistical series are kept by the Office of Population Censuses and Surveys which relate to divorce.
§ Mr. John PattenRegular and detailed statistical series relating to divorce are published annually in the reference volume "Marriage and Divorce Statistics"—the OPCS FM2 series of publications; annually in the OPCS monitor on divorces which provides summary statistics and some comparisons with previous years; and in table 15 of the OPCS quarterly journalPopulation Trends. All these series relate to numbers in England and Wales. The series are too numerous to list individually, but among the tables published are those relating to divorces by age at divorce, age at marriage, duration of marriage, children of divorcing couples, previous marital condition, fact proven at divorce, divorce petitions filed and the interval between petition and divorce.
