How many times did families or individuals, having already received two rounds of treatment from the NHS, apply for a third round of IVF treatment through the individual patient funding request route, in each of Wales' health boards in 2014/15 and 2015/16, and how many of these were successful?

The Welsh Health Specialised Services Committee (WHSSC) commissions specialist fertility treatment, including in vitro fertilisation on behalf of the seven health boards in Wales. WHSSC has advised they have not received any Individual Patient Funding Request applications for IVF in 2014-15 or 2015-16.
