Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the category 1 mean response time has been in each quarter since the classification of ambulance response times changed.
Mainland National Health Service ambulance trusts individually adopted the new response time standards between August and December 2017. The Isle of Wight NHS Trust will adopt the standards in autumn 2018.
The mean Category 1 response time for mainland ambulance trusts for Quarter 4 2017/18 was seven minutes and 42 seconds.
