 The table refers to the length of time people wait for treatment from when a consultant decides the patient requires inpatient or day case care.

The information relates only to patients admitted to hospital from the waiting list and excludes maternity and psychiatric admissions.

An "||" in a cell indicates that the figure has been suppressed as the denominator is less than 100.

Figures shown in blue are at least five percentage points higher than in the previous year and figures in red are at least five percentage points lower.
