The December 2023 data showed that 96.9% of pathways in Wales were waiting under two years. Five health boards exceeded the target with Swansea Bay showing a continued improvement and Betsi Cadwallader remaining the same. January data showed a continued improvement, with more than 97% waiting less than two years in six out of the seven health boards, and all Wales figure standing at 96.9%
