Freedom of Information Request – Ref: FOI 080-2022
Thank you for your recent Freedom of Information request. In order to respond to your request our information teams are seeking the below clarification:
• In relation to CYP, during the time period you are requesting we do not have that information. We are only just beginning to develop basic neuro waiting time information and can’t yet break down between ASD and ADHD. Please can you therefore confirm if you wish for us to continue with the rest of your request?
Would you be able to provide clarification around the information you are expecting the response to include for this question?
Kind Regards,
