Although will hold the information requested across systems we do not as a Trust or within the service monitor the service activity in this way that would answer your question. We would therefore need employ someone to pull this information together in order to answer your question. The cost of pulling this information together we estimate would take more than 18 hours which in turn would exceed the £450 limit as outlined in section 12 of the Freedom of Information Act.
