Publications
Our objective is to produce a full national report on each year within two years of the year end. So far we have produced reports for all years up to 2005. A report on incident cases up to 2006 will be published autumn 2008. The 1994 report is out of print, the rest may be viewed here or ordered by post.
Joint reports covering the years 1994 to 1996 and 1998 to 2000 have
been produced with the Northern Ireland
Cancer Registry
.
These reports can be
accessed online. To view our reports you will need
Adobe®
Reader®
. Due to their size, some full reports cannot be downloaded in
their entirety. Instead they are available to download on a chapter by chapter
basis.
