Summary of request

The Authority was asked for the success rates in 2010/2011 for private and NHS fertility clinics in London.

HFEA response

Attached is a table of HFEA licensed clinics in the London region. This includes the centre type (NHS, Private, NHS/Private partnership), as recorded in the centres’ most recent licence applications. Please note that our licensing system works on a four year cycle so, information such as centre type may be up to four year’s old. We have also included the type of licence that each centre holds, you may only be interested in those that hold a treatment licence rather than storage only centres.

• Release package (180kb)

The most up to date, verified success rate data is available on our website for each clinic and is reasonably accessible via our clinic directory (http://guide.hfea.gov.uk/guide/AllClinics.aspx?x=A ). As this part of the information requested is reasonably accessible via the HFEA website, it is exempt from disclosure under section 21 FOIA. Whilst we collect information about centre type on application forms we also collect information about the funding source of each treatment cycle and you will see on our clinic directory that some centres, although listed as perhaps Private in the attached table also carry out cycles that are funded by the NHS. The success rate data available in our clinic directory is updated every 6 months with another 6 months’ worth of data added so, in April 2012 verified live birth data for Jan- Jun 2010 and pregnancy data for Jan-Jun 2011 will be added.
