We said
Thank you for your enquiry.
Unfortunately, we would be unable to provide the birth rate for Rotherham for the years 2009-2012 and for 2020 so far. In order to fulfil this request, we would need use a high level of statistical skill and judgement in order to create bespoke analysis for you. Under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, Public Authorities are not obligated to create information in order to respond to requests. We therefore consider this to be information not held.
Please see the following table, extracted from our NOMIS webservice, which shows the total number of Live births and the Crude Birth rate for Rotherham from 2013-2019:
