Letter from Jil Matheson, dated December 2009:
As National Statistician, I have been asked to reply to your recent question asking how many people were diagnosed with breast cancer in (a) Lewes constituency, (b) Sussex, (c) the South East and (d) England in each year since 1997. [305610]
The latest available figures for newly diagnosed cases of breast cancer (incidence) are for the year 2007. Please note that these numbers may not be the same as the number of people diagnosed with cancer, because one person may be diagnosed with more than one cancer.
Table 1 provides the numbers of newly diagnosed cases of breast cancer for each year from 1997 to 2007 for (a) Lewes parliamentary constituency, (b) the counties of East Sussex and West Sussex, (c) South East government office region and (d) England.
So that comparison over time is based on a consistent area, newly diagnosed cases of cancer in the current Brighton and Hove unitary authority, which was part of the former county of East Sussex, have not been included for any year.

| (1) Breast cancer is coded as C50 in the International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10). (2) Around 99 per cent. of breast cancer cases are in women. (3) Based on boundaries as of 2009. (4) Newly diagnosed cases registered in each calendar year. | |||||||||||
Children: Poverty
Jim Cousins: To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office how many and what percentage of children are living in poverty in each region and country of the UK; and what percentage of children in poverty lived in households where one or more members of the household were in work in each year from 2005 to 2009. [302569]
Helen Goodman: I have been asked to reply.
Information on the number and percentage of children living in low income households in each region and country of the UK is given in the table for periods where data are available. Regional data are presented as three-year averages, due to variability in single-year estimates.
Information on the percentage of children in low income households where one or more members of the household were in work is in the table for years where data are available.
