Dear Sir/Madam,

 

Please could you provide clarification to your initial request,
specifically:

 

Please could you confirm, do you require figures for late miscarriages
only or would you also require figures for terminations for fetal
anomaly/medical reasons? Moreover, please could you confirm the exact
gestation period being requested? 

 

 

Please note that whilst we await clarification, the 20 working day time
limit shall be paused.

 

Apologies for any inconvenience caused, your assistance is greatly
appreciated.
