Statistics are most often revised for 1 of 2 reasons:

  1. For certain statistics initial estimates are released with the expectation that these may be revised and updated as further data becomes available.
  2. Revisions may also be made when methods or systems are changed.

These types of planned revisions should not be confused with errors in released statistics, which are genuine mistakes. Such mistakes occur rarely and, when they do happen, corrections are made in a timely manner, announced and clearly explained to users in line with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics (Principle 2, Practice 7).

We have corrected a labelling error in Tables 13a and 13b in 2021 and 2022 editions of this dataset. This affects the column names for columns G, I, K & M in those tables. The columns have been renamed to "Crude rate of years life lost" for the relevant age group from "Crude mortality rate". For more information on how the crude rate of years life lost is calculated please see our [User guide to mortality statistics][1].
