- Information Requested
I would like to obtain the following details regarding ambulance call-outs to Barlinnie Prison in Glasgow:
- The total number of times ambulances were called to Barlinnie Prison during the period from January 2015 to January 2025. (Or the most recent figures available)
- A breakdown of the nature of these incidents.
- A monthly breakdown of these ambulance call-outs, including the nature of the incidents for each month
- Response
Please see the attached sheet detailing the information in your request; the date range for the information is 01/01/2015 – 31/12/2024.
We have split the information into three tables. The first details the number of incidents broken down by month and the second table details the number of incidents broken down by chief complaint and year and the third table details the total figures for each complaint.
It is important to note that post code G33 2QX has been used to identify Barlinnie Prison; other incidents in that postcode may be included.
For the given data, you will see that some of the figures are shown as less than five, please note that this figure has been suppressed because the statistical value is less than five. The Scottish Ambulance service has a duty, under the Data Protection Act to avoid directly or indirectly revealing any personal details. It is therefore widely understood that provision of statistics on small numbers, five or less are statistically suppressed upon disclosure.
