Additional elective operations, appointments and tests to March 2025

Information relating to the 2024 Labour manifesto commitment to deliver an extra two million NHS operations, scans and appointments.

Statistics release cancelled

The publication of the official statistics on additional elective operations, appointments and tests to March 2025 is delayed due to technical reasons. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. We will provide details about the revised publication date when known. The issue is associated with changes to how the data are processed that have affected the volumes of outpatient procedures identified as being in scope of the metric in both the baseline and current time periods.
