* How many adults aged 65+ have applied for respite care in the last five years to date?
We are unable to determine how many adults have applied for respite care as this would not be recorded in a way that would be reportable, unless we manually check every record. There are 137,545 assessments completed in the last five years and even at a few minutes per form, it would take a significant length of time to extract this information and well in excess of the appropriate time limit of 18 hours. Therefore, pursuant to s.12 of the Freedom of Information Act, we are not obliged to provide you with this information.
