As
well
as
the
benefits
derived
from
automation
,
ONS
has
thus
brought
the
coding
rules
into
line
with
international
practice
.
However
,
all
these
changes
have
an
effect
on

from

compared
with
figures

years
.

The
two
main
changes
arise
from
a
revised
interpretation
of
WHO
Coding
Rule

and
from
the
absence
of
medical
enquiries
