answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2021 answer text <p>The OVA has looked at how the frequency of suicide within the veteran community can best be measured and has identifed a robust methodology which does not require the placing of new duties on coroners. The new approach utilises data collected through the 2021 England and Wales census to compare the health of the veteran population with the health of the general population, including looking at suicide related deaths of veterans.</p><p>This new approach does not prevent coroners from seeking information about veteran status where it is felt that this is relevant to the suicide being investigated and the coroner has previously been informed by family members that the person was a veteran. There is a single point of contact at the MOD for coroners to obtain information on whether the suicide victim was a former member of the UK’s armed forces.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Aldershot answering member printed Leo Docherty grouped question UIN 56821 56826 question first answered 25/10/2021 09:49:20 answering member 4600 label Biography information for Leo Docherty

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 25/10/2021 answer text <p>The new methodology to measure the frequency of suicide within the veteran community will utilise data gathered through the 2021 England and Wales census to compare the health of the veteran population with the health of the general population. This will include suicide related deaths of veterans and we intend to include a breakdown by service as part of this analysis. This analysis will be undertaken in 2023, and in the interim the OVA will be working with ONS and the MOD to conduct a 10 year look back at veteran deaths by suicide. This work will inform us how many veterans have died through suicide and other causes including drug and alcohol misuse from 2011-2021, and to estimate the number that died homeless. Through the new methodology and our broader research programme we will explore data linking opportunities to understand veterans’ wider experiences, support needs and interaction with public services.</p> answering member constituency Aldershot answering member printed Leo Docherty grouped question UIN 56824 56825 question first answered 25/10/2021 09:48:53 answering member 4600 label Biography information for Leo Docherty
