Request
I would like to know how many actual suicides have occurred since January 2017 to date.
Details of attempted suicides have recently been published but no figures as to actual suicides and whether the majority were male / female.
Response
This information is routinely published by Statistics Jersey. The latest report is available on gov.je at the following link:
Jersey Mortality statistics 2017
Data is in arrears as deaths suspected to be by suicide need to have completed the inquest process before the cause of death is confirmed.
