Children On Waiting List
Description
  1. Total number of children currently on your waiting lists and for each of the past five years. Please also break this data down by age e.g. age 1, age 2 etc.
  2. Average waiting time from referral by year for each of the past 5 years.

Response
  1. We do not routinely record the requested data and to determine if we hold this information would require a manual trawl through paper records. This would constitute a disproportionate effort to retrieve and would exceed 18 hours. This information is therefore exempt on the grounds of cost (Section 12(1)); however we have been able to provide a snap shot of March figures over the last 4 years, and February for this year. (See attached)

  3. Our systems did not previously record this level of data and reports cannot be run retrospectively; however we have provided waiting times for the last 2 years. (see attached)
