Request 101001486032
Could the Local Authority provide information on waiting times for occupational therapy appointments.
I am interested in:
• The average wait for an OT appointment in 2013-14, 2014-15, and 2015-16;
• The longest wait for an OT appointment in 2013-14, 2014-15, and 2015-16;
• The average wait for an OT home assessment in 2013-14, 2014-15, and 2015-16;
• The longest wait for an OT home assessment in 2013-14, 2014-15, and 2015-16.

Information is not available for the 2013-14 year as the current assessment wasn't in use then so this information is exempt under Section 17 of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002- Information Not Held.
