Request
I am making a Freedom of Information request to find out how many Ultrasound devices are in use within the East Midlands Strategic Health Authority area.
Our Response
I refer to your email requesting information in respect of the number of Ultrasound Devices in use in the East Midlands.
I can confirm in accordance with S.1 (1) of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA) that we do not hold the information that you have requested.
However, Section 16 of the FOIA places a duty on us to provide help and assistance where necessary. You should therefore consider contacting NHS East Midlands’ constituent organisations separately for the information that you require. The following link to our website will enable you to do this:-
