Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what the average waiting time is for applicants to the National Performers List.
NHS England, which is responsible for the operation of the National Performers List, does not collect or publish figures on average waiting times for admission to the lists. FHS Service (Capita), which operates the system on behalf of NHS England, has a Key Performance Indicator of passing requests on to NHS England within six weeks of receipt.
