Dear Devon Partnership NHS Trust,,

Thank you very much for your response.

As for some months it is not possible to indicate specific number of appointments due to data protection regulations, I was wondering if you could share total number of appointments throughout the year (rather than broken down by month) in the points 2 and 6?

Thanks again.

Yours sincerely,

Steven Brown

Dear Devon Partnership NHS Trust,

Okay. Thank you for handling patients' data carefully!

Yours sincerely,

Steven Brown
