Summary

This report presents statistics on mother’s smoking status at time of delivery, at Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG), Sustainability and Transformation Partnership (STP), Region and national levels. This release includes provisional data for quarter 1 of 2020-21.

Due to the coronavirus illness (COVID-19) disruption, it would seem that this is now starting to affect the quality and coverage of some of our statistics, such as an increase in non-submissions for some datasets. For the SATOD collection, there is now a noticeable difference in the percentage of mothers who were smokers at the time of delivery from the previous quarter (10.5% in Q4 2019/20 to 9.8% in Q1 2020/21). Therefore, data should be interpreted with care over the COVID-19 period. Please see data DQ table 1 for details of coverage issues given by submitters for this collection.
