Letter from Karen Dunnell, dated 25 April 2008:
As the National Statistician I have been asked to reply to your question about how many multiple births there have been in (a) Basingstoke and (b) Hampshire to mothers aged (i) below 18, (ii) between 18 and 24, (iii) between 25 and 29, (iv) above 30 years of age, in each year since 1997.
The latest year for which figures are available is 2006. The attached tables show the number of women experiencing a multiple maternity in Basingstoke and Deane local authority and Hampshire county, in each year from 1997 to 2006. A multiple maternity occurs when a woman gives birth to two or more children at the same time, including both live and stillborn children.
Due to very small numbers at ages below 18 and between 18 and 24 in Basingstoke and Deane, these two age groups have been combined with the age group 25 to 29 to preserve the confidentiality of individuals. For the same reason, ages below 18 and between 18 and 24 have been combined for Hampshire.

| Age of mother | |||
| Under 30 | 30 and over | All | |
