	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/12/2023 answer text <p>General practice does not operate with waiting lists. NHS England publishes monthly data on General Practice Appointments, including the approximate length of time between appointments being booked and taking place, but this is not a proxy for a “waiting list”.</p><p>There are several factors which can influence the timing of appointments, and it is not possible to estimate the time between the patient’s first attempt to contact their surgery and an appointment. For example, routine appointments such as screening tests or regular injections may be booked further in advance.</p> answering member constituency South Northamptonshire answering member printed Andrea Leadsom grouped question UIN 649 question first answered 19/12/2023 16:48:49 answering member 4117 label Biography information for Andrea Leadsom
