Audrey Wise: To ask the Secretary of State for Health, pursuant to his reply of 14 February 2000, Official Report, column 387W, if he will list for the years for which they are available the estimated numbers of women diagnosed as receiving hospital care for miscarriage grossed to allow for missing, incomplete and inaccurate records; and if he will give an indication of the accuracy and completeness of this information. [113093] Yvette Cooper: It is regretted that the reply of 14 February was incorrect. The information provided in the table showing the estimated numbers of women diagnosed as receiving hospital care for miscarriage for the years prior to 1997-98 was grossed to allow for missing, incomplete and inaccurate records. The difference between grossed and ungrossed figures in recent years is between 3-4 per cent. The following table contains the information requested. _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Year Number of miscarriages 1989-90 48,500 1990-91 50,600 1991-92 53,100 1992-93 52,400 1993-94 51,300 1994-95 48,700 1995-96 43,900 1996-97 44,500 1997-98 {1}41,800 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. {1} Provisional The information in the table is obtained from the Hospital Episodes Statistics system. The data for the years prior to 1997-98 are grossed and have been adjusted to allow for missing, incomplete or inaccurate records. Data extracted were those with the diagnosis code O03 (ICD-10) Spontaneous Abortion.

[108680] Yvette Cooper: There are no reliable data held by the Department about the number of miscarriages where care was provided by a general practitioner. Information about the number of women requiring hospital treatment for miscarriages is available from the Hospital Episode Statistics but not by period of gestation.

The numbers of births by type of delivery are collected by the Department on the Hospital Episode Statistics system. The numbers of births by social class of father and mother, and inside/outside marriage including sole registration are collected by the Office for National Statistics through the birth registration system.

Audrey Wise: To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs if he will list the applications for arms sales to Indonesia which have been (a) allowed and (b) refused since 1 May 1997. [88590] Dr. Howells: I have been asked to reply. Information on export licensing decisions between 2 May and 31 December 1997 was set out in the Annual Report on Strategic Export Controls, published on 25 March by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The entry in the relevant legislation under which the export of goods is controlled is known as their rating. The Export Control Organisation's computer databases have been interrogated and the following results were obtained. Between 1 January 1998 and 18 June 1999, 51 Standard Individual Export Licences (SIELs) and 20 Open Individual Export Licences (OIELs) were issued covering the export to consignees or end-users in Indonesia of goods subject to export control by being listed in Part III of Schedule 1 to the Export of Goods (Control) Order 1994, the so-called Military List. In the same period, two applications for such SIELs were refused: one covering goods rated ML1 and the other covering goods rated ML3. No applications for such OIELs were refused in full. Individual licences cover a range of goods with various ratings. Where this is so, the licence is included in the table in the total for all of the relevant ratings. Individual licences issued between 1 January 1998 and 18 June 1999 covering the export to Indonesia of goods on the Military List _________________________________________________________________________________________________. Rating Number of SIELs issued covering goods with Number of OIELs issued covering goods with this rating this rating ML1 3 0 ML2 5 0 ML3 3 0 ML4 1 1 ML5 1 1 ML6 1 1 ML7 1 0 ML9 2 3 ML10 19 8 ML11 11 8 ML13 2 0 ML14 2 1 ML15 2 1 ML21 2 3 ML22 1 3 PL5006 2 0 PL5017 2 1 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. This information does not cover any Media OIELs that may have been issued during this period. Media OIELs authorise the export to all destinations of protective clothing, mainly for the protection of aid agency workers and journalists, when working in areas of conflict. This information should be considered in light of the answer given by the Financial Secretary to the Treasury, my hon. Friend the Member for Hornsey and Wood Green (Mrs. Roche) to my hon. Friend the Member for Don Valley (Caroline Flint) on 30 October 1997, Official Report, columns 870-71. In addition, the export to specified countries, including Indonesia, of specified goods on the Military List is permitted under certain Open General Licences; copies of all Open General Licences valid at any time during the period are in the Library of the House.
