Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) statistics

The request was partially successful.

Dear NHS Digital,

Using only the IAPT 2.0 dataset, please can you provide the following statistics for IAPT as a whole (England). Please provide these by month, or year if possible, noting the date they relate to. This is a revised FOI request based on NIC-639975-T8X6X , which was refused for being too time consuming. Please answer as much as possible within the 18-hour limit, from 1-4 in order, rather than rejecting the whole request if it's estimated to take over 18 hours to answer everything.

1 - How many Step 2 low-intensity (LI) sessions took place. And how many clients attended these LI sessions.
2 - How many Step 3 high-intensity (HI) sessions took place. And how many clients attended these HI sessions.
3 - How many Step 3 HI sessions were CBT. And how many clients attended these HI CBT sessions.
4 - How many clients were stepped up from Step 2 (LI) to Step 3 (HI) at any point during their IAPT journey.

I look forward to hearing back from you. Thank you very much.

Yours faithfully,

A Brieussel

Dear A Brieussel,

We are writing to acknowledge that your request for information was
received by NHS Digital on 31/03/2022 and is currently being considered.

If NHS Digital is able to provide you with the information you have
requested, then under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act you are
entitled to receive it promptly and in any event no later than the 20th
working day following the date of receipt. However, we may need to contact
you to clarify your request. If this is required we aim to do this
promptly but no later than 7 days after receiving your initial request for
information.

The FOI Act provides a 'General right of access to information held by
public authorities'. However, it also defines a number of exemptions
which may prevent the release of some or all of the information you have
requested. Therefore, NHS Digital will assess your information request in
light of any relevant exemptions.

If exemptions do apply, then NHS Digital may decide not to release all, or
part, of the information you have requested. I shall inform you if this is
the case, and advise you of your rights of appeal.

If the information you request contains reference to a third party then
they may be consulted prior to a decision being taken as to whether to
release the information to you.

The response to your request will be sent to you by email, however if you
require your response in any other format, please contact us to discuss a
suitable format.

NHS Digital will not normally charge a fee to provide you with the
information you have requested, unless the cost of dealing with your
request is more than £450 as outlined in Section 12 of the FOI Act and
Section 3 of the The FOI and Data Protection (Appropriate Limit and Fees)
Regulations 2004. If it appears likely that your request will cost more,
then NHS Digital is able to refuse to supply the information.  As per our
obligations under Section 16 of the FOI Act, every effort will be made to
provide you with details of how you may be able to reframe your request in
order for us to complete the required work within the (£450 / 18 person
hours) cost limit.

If you have any queries or should you wish to make a complaint about the
manner in which your request is being processed then please do not
