The Scottish Ambulance Service holds information about incidents at specific addresses but can only report this at a postcode level. To report this at an individual address level we would be required to apply complex judgement. The reason for this there is the potential for an incident to occur outside a premises and therefore not be attributed to a specific address.
Please see the attached sheet detailing the total number of incidents reported, attended and conveyed for the postcodes of PA19 1BQ, KY11 8GQ and KY11 8ST for the years requested.
The numbers provided are too small to breakdown the incidents into months, therefore we have provided it broken down by year.
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.
