Dear Catherine

Request to re-start assessment of the NHS Scotland workforce statistics

Thank you for your letter of 6 March requesting the assessment resumption of the NHS Scotland workforce statistics by NHS Education for Scotland (NES) during 2024/2025.

We welcome the positive progress made by NES since the assessment was paused in 2022 and its aspiration to publicly demonstrate compliance with the Code of Practice for Statistics.

I am pleased to confirm that my team will be in touch with you and your team shortly to confirm timing for this assessment. I am copying this letter to David Baird, Service Manager of the Public Health Scotland Statistical Governance team, and to the team at NES – Colin Tilley, Liz Jamieson and Ben Tait.

Yours sincerely

Ed Humpherson
