- Information Requested
I would like to submit an FOI request for the following information: The number of call outs each in the Edinburgh and the Lothians area, broken down by postcode and month from the year 2022/2023 to 2025/2026.
- Response
Please see the attached sheet detailing the totals number of emergency attended incidents in the Edinburgh and Lothian areas broken down by month and postcode for the period 01/04/2022 - 31/03/2026.
The information has been provided by postcode sector because the full postcode would produce figures that would be too small to report on and incidents may become identifiable.
For the given data, you will see that some of the figures are shown as, five or less than five, please note that this figure has been suppressed because the statistical value is less than five. The Scottish Ambulance service has a duty, under the Data Protection Act to avoid directly or indirectly revealing any personal details. It is therefore widely understood that provision of statistics on small numbers, five or less are statistically suppressed upon disclosure.
