Suicide rate of personnel aged 16-19

The request was successful.

Dear Ministry of Defence,

Can you please tell me what was the suicide rate per 100,000 personnel in the 16-19 age group in the a) army, and b) armed forces in the period 1984-2021.

I'm aware of the information in the data tables here - https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics... - but these seem to show only standardised mortality ratios (SMR) for the 16-19 age group rather than the rate per 100,000.

I hope you have the information easily to hand.

With thanks in advance for your help,

David Gee
