§ Dr. Marekasked the Secretary of State for Social Services, pursuant to his reply of 1 May, Official Report, column 470, if he has any information showing standardised mortality ratios of men aged 15 to 64 years according to social class based on occupations recorded in the 1981 census, and at death registration prior to and following the census, where occupations have been coded into social classes according to both the 1970 and 1980 classifications of occupations.
§ Mr. Whitney[pursuant to his reply, 10 July 1986, c. 270]: No, not in this precise form, though a re-coding study of the occupations of a sample of those who died in 1979–80 has been made for the Office of Population Censuses and Surveys longitudinal study. Some conclusions from this will be published in the forthcoming decennial supplement on occupational mortality. A possible further re-coding study is under consideration.
