The numbers of mesothelioma deaths in 1995 by local authority are shown in Table 1. Information on mesothelioma deaths is not yet available for 1996. Information for parliamentary constituencies is not collected.
The total number of lung cancers caused by asbestos is estimated to be at least equal to the number of mesothelioma cases, and may be greater, but it is not possible to give a more precise figure as they are not distinguishable from the much larger number due to other causes such as smoking.
