I'd like to request the number of live births by ethnicity, sex and specific local authorities in 2025, in both the counties of Lancashire and Greater Manchester.
We said
Thank you for your request.
While we do hold raw data containing the information you have requested, we have not produced analysis showing live births by ethnicity, sex and local authorities in Lancashire and Greater Manchester specifically. However, we can create this for you as a custom output via our user requested data service.
Information on live births by ethnicity and sex for local authorities in Lancashire and Greater Manchester along with other special extracts and tabulations of births data for England and Wales are available to order. Such services are subject to legal frameworks, resources and agreement of costs, subject to our charging policy. If you would like to request this bespoke dataset, please contact: Health.Data@ons.gov.uk. As this information is reasonably accessible via another route, even if only accessible on payment, Section 21(2)(a) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) applies.
