Request and Response

1.    To ask, in your health board area, how many people are currently on waiting lists for an appointment or consultation in relation to eating disorders?

2.    Could this be broken down by gender and by under 18s v over 18s?

Under FOISA s 12(1), NHS Shetland is not obliged to comply with a request if the estimated cost of doing so exceeds £600. Having reviewed your request, NHS Shetland has determined that the cost of compliance would exceed £600 and so is unable to provide the information requested; we have provided a breakdown of the estimated costs below: 1103 individual patient records x 30 minutes each to find the information = 33090 minutes=551.5hours x £15 per hour = £8,272.50
