Time frame of data and timeliness Data up to 31 December 2023. Data for the quarter and year ending 31 December 2023 were extracted from SIRS in mid-February 2024 and published by PHS in March 2024.
Coverage The target population these statistics aim to cover are children reaching 12 months to 6 years of age for each quarter reported.
Completeness The data covers the entire child population in Scotland up to 6 years of age i.e. it is not a sample.
Accuracy As the data are recorded on SIRS for the primary purpose of facilitating the invitation of children for immunisation, a high degree of accuracy of data recording by NHS Boards is required. Quality checks are conducted at data entry by NHS Boards. In addition, NHS Board Immunisation Co-ordinators have the opportunity to review figures for their area prior to publication, so that any issues affecting the reported rates can be highlighted to users as appropriate. Figures are compared to previous years' figures and expected trends by PHS.
Continuity of data Data from quarter ending 30 September 2019.
