Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the average recorded ambulance response time was for (a) England, (b) the East of England and (c) Suffolk in each year between 2014 and 2024.

The Department does not hold the information requested. NHS England has published ambulance quality indicator official statistics monthly at a national level, and at an ambulance trust level since August 2017. This data is not published at smaller geographies below the national and ambulance trust level, such as for the Suffolk County boundary.

The attached table shows the average ambulance categories 1, 2, 3 and 4 incident response times for the East of England and England from 2017 to October 2024, displayed in hours, minutes, and seconds.
