-----Original Message----- To: [log in to unmask] Wednesday 27th September, 5 pm at the RSS Tea at 4.30 Radical Statistics Health Group - OFFICIAL HEALTH STATISTICS: WHAT WE HAVE AND WHAT WE NEED In 'Official Health Statistics: an Unofficial Guide' (published this month) the Group outlined the scope and range of data available about health, the causes of poor health and the availability and use of health and social services in the four countries of the United Kingdom. The meeting will focus on gaps in the data available and discuss what further statistics are needed to monitor government policies for promoting public health and for providing health and social care. In England, this has major implications for the implementation of the NHS Plan. The RSS is at 12 Errol Street EC1Y 8LX.
