registration of NHS patients with general practitioners. I am advising
you that the Scottish Government considers this request to fall under
section 17 of the Act in that the information is not held by the
Scottish Government. However, you may wish to contact NHS National
Services Scotland at Customer Services Desk, National Services Scotland,
Gyle Square, South Gyle Crescent, Edinburgh EH12 9EB, telephone 0131 275
