Abstract
This is the 13th data report released for the Child and Youth Mortality Review Committee (the CYMRC). It reports mainly on data from 2012 to 2016, as well as providing some tables and figures for 2002 to 2016 and some for 1980 to 2016. Most of the data is from the Mortality Review Database, which contains information on all deaths in children and young people aged 28 days to 24 years who died in Aotearoa/New Zealand from 2002 to the present.
