You asked

I am looking for some data on the induction of labour rate to compare to the stillbirth rate in England. I have found data on stillbirth across the years but have so far been unsuccessful for the rate of induction of labour. Is this something you could provide? An overview of the past 10 years would be great.

We said

Thank you for your request.

Unfortunately, we do not hold data relating to the induction of labour, our data is derived from information collected at the point of birth registration and from birth notifications.
