Publication Note
From Tuesday 1st July to Tuesday 12th August 2025 inclusive a consolidation on the Statistics for Public Health publication was held. All the proposals were accepted and therefore the Statistics for Public Health publication for 2025 only includes signposting and guidance on how to access the new data sources.
This publication has therefore ceased to be an Accredited Official Statistic (National Statistic).
To read more about the proposals please follow the link to the consultation page.
