Dear FOI (QUEEN VICTORIA HOSPITAL NHS FOUNDATION TRUST),

Thank you for your reply.
You said that your Trust is planning to replace your Pathology Clinisys - WinPath system. Do you have new systems already procured or are you going out on Tender? Could we please have the new system details and a Go live date for the system?

Yours sincerely,

Miss G Kovacs
