The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many domestic abortions using (a) mifepristone and (b) misoprostol have occurred in England in each year since 2020.

Answered by Karin Smyth

The Department cannot separate out which of mifepristone or misoprostol were administered at home, only whether one or both abortion medications were administered at home.
