To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government how many domestic fires involving (a) pushchairs and (b) car seats suitable for infants from birth to six months old have been reported in each year since 1980. (277785)

The item first ignited is recorded in the statistical reporting of fire incidents. Pushchairs and infant car seats would both be recorded in the category ‘other’. Consequently statistics on the incidence of such fires cannot be derived.
