U.K. Suicides 2020

The request was refused by Office for National Statistics.

Jessica Waddington

Dear Office for National Statistics,

Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, please can you let me know:

1. The number of suicide deaths that occurred in the U.K. in 2020
2. The above deaths categorised by age

These statistics should have been available early in 2021, so there should be no reason for their delay. To withhold this information from the public is unlawful.

I expect a prompt response.

Yours faithfully,

Jessica Waddington
