Request and Response

It is my understanding that your health board holds data on Breast Screening procedures and standards.

As such, can I request the following information for the time period covering from the calendar year from 2021 to 2025 (most recent):

 

  1. The longest time period (in days) in between sending out appointment letters for breast screening to any region/location?

In accordance with FOISA s 17(1), NHS Shetland confirms that it does not hold the information requested.

Any queries about breast screening invites should go the North East Scotland breast screening service in Aberdeen as they deal with all the invites and letters.
