HC Deb 22 February 2000 vol 344 cc990-7W
Mr. McNamara

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the standardised mortality rate for each ward in(a) West Hull primary care group, (b) East Hull primary care group and (c) East Riding primary care group; and what is the average figure for the United Kingdom. [110357]

Miss Melanie Johnson

The information requested falls within the responsibility of the Director of the Office for National Statistics. I have asked him to reply.

Letter from Tim Holt to Mr. Kevin McNamara, dated 22 February 2000: As Director of the Office for National Statistics (ONS), I have been asked to reply to your recent question on standardised mortality rates for each ward in the West Hull, East Hull and East Riding Primary Care Groups and the UK. East Riding Health Authority contains 4 Primary Care Groups: Western Hull, Eastern Hull, Yorkshire Coast and Wolds and East Yorkshire. The attached table shows European standardised mortality rates for each ward in East Riding HA based on deaths in 1991–3 and populations from the 1991 Census. Many of the wards in existence in 1991 are covered by more than one Primary Care Group. We have not provided data for all wards in the UK due to disproportionate cost. The European standardised mortality rate is a measure of the expected number of deaths per 100,000 population if the local population had the same age structure as the European standard population.

Mr. Timms

The information requested falls within the responsibility of the Director of the Office for National Statistics. I have asked him to reply.

Letter from Tim Holt to Mr. Kevin McNamara, dated 22 February 2000: As Director of the Office for National Statistics (ONS), I have been asked to reply to your recent questions on average death rates, average cancer related death rates, average death rates for cervical cancer, average coronary heart disease death rates and average stroke death rates. You asked for the rates for each ward in the West Hull, East Hull and East Riding Primary Care Groups and the UK. East Riding Health Authority is made up of 4 Primary care Groups: Western Hull, Eastern Hull, Yorkshire Coast and Wolds and East Yorkshire. The attached table shows indirectly standardised mortality ratios (SMR) for all-causes of death, coronary heart disease, cancer and stroke, for each ward in East Riding HA during 1991–1993, based on populations from the 1991 Census. We have provided indirectly standardised ratios rather than European standardised rates as the latter does not incorporate sex standardisation and is likely to be less accurate for small numbers of deaths by cause in each ward. Many of the wards in existence in the 1991 Census are covered by more than one Primary Care Group. We have not provided data for all wards in the UK due to disproportionate cost and we have not provided data for cervical cancer deaths as the maximum number of deaths over the three year period in any ward in East Riding HA is three and most wards had no deaths. An SMR is defined as the ratio for the observed deaths in a given population over the expected deaths in that population if it experienced the age-specific death rates of a standard population (in this case the United Kingdom). The SMR for the UK is 100. Values greater than 100 indicate higher than average mortality and values lower than 100 indicate lower than average mortality.
