Proposals to change this publication
The proposal is for the data source for this publication will be changed to the Maternity Services Data Set (MSDS).
This proposal has been driven by the need to reduce burden on data collection. The proposal is to decommission the original data collection and merge the publication into the Maternity services monthly statistics publication. This will increase the potential for additional breakdowns to be included.
The consultation can be found here: Health and social care statistical outputs published by DHSC (including OHID), NHSBSA, UKHSA, ONS and NHS England - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
