(1) This district incorporates one or more smaller districts which were separate in 2001. Figures from years when the districts were separate have been aggregated.
Note:
In certain circumstances where the data were not available, we have estimated the number of outstanding inquests in a jurisdiction at the end of a year by using related data on the numbers of inquests opened and closed during the year. Around 6 per cent. of values shown in this table have been subject to such an estimation process.
