<p>National Health Service genomic testing activity data, collected from all seven
NHS Genomic Laboratory Hubs, is available on the NHS England website. NHS England
will continue to publish this data on a quarterly basis. The published data indicates
the total volume of genomic testing activity completed per month, broken down into
cancer and rare and inherited disease. The cancer data is further separated into nine
different categories of cancer. NHS England is looking into separating this further
if there are other specific categories of cancer test type which would be of interest.
The published data does not currently include data broken down by ethnicity or socioeconomic
status, but NHS England’s ambition is to improve and expand future publications of
the data, which may include areas relating to health inequalities.</p>
