Data are available at local authority, health authority and ward level. Individual studies in the series record various parts of these data. Changes have been made over time to the way in which the Office for National Statistics (ONS) collects vital statistics data, resulting in some variation in the content of later studies in the series. Further information may be found in the <i>Key Population and Vital Statistics</i> reports available from the ONS web site.<br> <br> During 2006, Sam Smith and colleagues at ESDS Government carried out work on various studies in the series prior to 2002, to improve the data format. The resulting files have been redeposited at the UKDA. More information is available in the documentation for the studies concerned.<br> <br>The data cover mainly local and health authority level data for 1993-1998: births and deaths summary data (1994-1998), births data, mortality data by cause, infant and perinatal mortality data. Some data at ward level are also included: births and deaths by wards (1995-1998) and deaths by selected causes by wards (1995-1998).<br> <br> For the second edition (August 2006), work was carried out on the data by ESDS Government (see above), in order to produce more user-friendly tab-delimited ASCII files. The data are also available in Excel, and ONS ITELite format.<br> <br><B>Main Topics</B>:<BR>The following tables are included:<ul><li>DVS1: births and deaths summary data (1994-1998)</li><li>DVS2: births data (1993-1998)</li><li>DVS3: mortality data by cause (1993-1998)</li><li>DVS4: births and deaths by wards (1995-1998)</li><li>DVS4d: deaths by selected causes by wards (1995-1998)</li><li>DVS5: infant and perinatal mortality data (1993-1998)</li></ul>See documentation for further details of definitions, content and methodology.<br> <br> <br> England and Wales IndividualsNationalDemographic data Vital statistics recorded in England and Wales 1993-1998, aggregated at ward and local/health authority level.
