Request
“I am keen to know the longest period a person has had to wait to start cancer treatment in the FY 2022/23. In other words, please reveal the longest wait on record there was for an individual to start treatment for each particular type of cancer.
I am seeking the number of days each individual waited. For example, ‘the person who waited the longest to start treatment for x cancer in 2022/23 was x amount of days’.
I realise Public Health Scotland already publishes so much on this topic, but I believe it usually shows collective trends or clusters of data rather than individual stats for people.”
