As National Statistician, I have been asked to reply to your recent question asking how many deaths were due to smoking-related illness in (a) Bolton and (b) the UK in each of the last five years. (215393)
Deaths due to smoking-related illness cannot be directly estimated, as smoking status is not included on the death certificate. However, research published by the then Health Development Agency in 2004 suggested that, in the period 1998-2002, some 17 per cent of all deaths in UK were attributable to smoking.(1)

Letter from Karen Dunnell, dated June 2008:
As National Statistician I have been asked to reply to your Parliamentary Question on how many (a) part-time and (b) full-time jobs there were in (i) Chorley, (ii) Lancashire and (iii) the North West in each year since 1997. (213647)
The Office for National Statistics compiles employment statistics for local areas from the Annual Population Survey (APS) and its predecessor the annual Labour Force Survey (LFS). This is the preferred source for estimates at the detailed level requested although the estimates refer to the number of people in employment rather than the number of jobs.
The attached table provides estimates of the number of people aged 16 and over, in full and part-time employment, resident in Chorley, Lancashire and the North West.
