You asked

Please provide deaths of 13 to 18-year-olds in 2019 by suicide.

We said

Thank you for your request. 

Our annual Suicides in England and Wales bulletin provides the number of suicides occurring each year by broad age group, but does not provide figures for persons aged between 13 and 18 years. 

The requested information would therefore need to be created as a custom output. Information on suicides for persons aged 13 to 18 years along with other special extracts and tabulations of mortality data for England and Wales may be available to order. Please note these services are subject to legal frameworks, disclosure control, resources and agreements of costs in line with our charging policy.   

Please contact Health.Data@ons.gov.uk to discuss this further. 

As the requested information is reasonably accessible via another route, even if only accessible on payment, the exemption found under Section 21 of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) applies.
