NHS England publishes the number of Category A Red One and Red Two calls responded to within eight minutes and the number of ambulances arriving at the scene within 19 minutes for a Category A call. The data are available at the following link:

NHS England is exploring whether changes to the way that the ambulance service responds to calls could help improve patient outcomes and help services better manage demand. We expect NHS England will make recommendations in spring 2017.
