Yorkshire and the Humber is one of nine official regions of England at the first level of ITL for statistical purposes.[a] The population in 2021 was 5,481,431[2] with its largest settlements being Leeds, Sheffield, Bradford, Hull, and York.

It is subdivided into East Riding of Yorkshire, North Yorkshire (excluding areas in Tees Valley of North East England), South Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, North Lincolnshire, and North East Lincolnshire. The committees for the region ceased to exist after the 12 April 2010;[6] regional ministers were not reappointed by the incoming Cameron–Clegg coalition government, with the associated government offices abolished in 2011.
