Response

We have now completed the search of our records and can provide you with the following information:

Under Section 17 of the Freedom of Information Scotland Act, 2002 (FOISA), an organisation does not have to provide that information if it does not hold it. NHS National Services Scotland (NSS) cannot provide information regarding the number of patients by brand as we do not record this level of detail.

We can provide you with Appendix 1 – Immunoglobin Vials issued to Scottish Hospitals, for the breakdown of immunoglobulin, by product, which has been distributed to NHS Scotland Hospitals for the months of October 2025, November 2025 and December 2025. Please note, where a product is not listed, this will be because we do not hold any record of those products being distributed to NHS Scotland Hospitals for the months requested.
