§ Mr. FieldTo ask the Secretary of State for Health, pursuant to his answer of 11 January 2000,Official Report, column 139W, for each of the weight categories for the year 1997, what percentage of those (a) babies conceived by IVF and (b) other babies were single births. [105430]
§ Yvette CooperThe information requested has been placed in the Library.
I regret that three incorrect figures were given in my previous answer. These were in the figures provided for 1997, in respect of babies born in Scotland and Northern Ireland and babies born by in vitro fertilisation in the United Kingdom. Revised tables with the correct figures have also been placed in the Library.
