<p>The Department does not hold information on the number of suicides by people aged
10-19 years of age as a result of online bullying.</p><p> </p><p>However, the National
Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Homicide by People with Mental Illness, which
is commissioned by NHS England and supported by the Department, published a thematic
review in 2016, Suicide by Children and Young People in England. A copy of the report
is available at the following link:</p><p><a href="http://www.hqip.org.uk/resources/report-suicide-by-children-and-young-people-in-england/"
target="_blank">http://www.hqip.org.uk/resources/report-suicide-by-children-and-young-people-in-england/</a></p><p>
</p><p>The report identified ten common themes relating to suicides by people under
20 years of age between 2014 and 2015, including bullying (online and face-to-face)
and suicide-related internet use.</p>
