You asked
Please could you provide the number of live births in the UK from 2022 to the most recent available date (with a yearly breakdown if available), where the mother was recorded as being born in Ukraine?
We said
Thank you for your request.
We are responsible for the production of birth statistics for England and Wales, this is driven by information collected from the birth certificate at registration. National Records Scotland (NRS) and Northern Ireland Statistics and Research Agency (NISRA) are responsible for statistics pertaining to Scotland and Northern Ireland. They can be contacted at foi@nrscotland.gov.uk and info@nisra.gov.uk respectively.
Our annual release of Births by Parents Country of Birth provides figures on the number of births for grouped countries. Births to mothers born in the Ukraine are included in the 'Rest of Europe' category.
We have not produced an output showing the exact analysis you require. However, we can create a custom output. Information on the number of live births to mothers born in Ukraine for 2022, 2023 and provisional figures for 2024 along with other special extracts and tabulations of births data for England and Wales are available to order. These are subject to legal frameworks, disclosure control, resources and agreements of costs in line with our charging policy.
