	tabling member constituency	Cambridge
	tabling member printed	Daniel Zeichner
	uin	275214
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/07/2019 answer text <p>The Health and Safety Executive’s (HSE) estimates of the annual number of deaths linked to past exposures at work include deaths occurring at all ages. However, analyses of national mortality data based on the last occupation of the deceased recorded on death certificates, such as the mesothelioma analyses published by HSE, do not include deaths beyond age 74. This is because it is known that the accuracy of occupational information recorded on death certificates declines for older ages. Therefore, the data on the last occupation of the deceased is only coded for those aged 16 to 74 in England and Wales by the Office for National Statistics.</p> answering member constituency North Swindon answering member printed Justin Tomlinson question first answered 17/07/2019 09:19:13 answering member 4105 label Biography information for Justin Tomlinson
