I am writing to advise you that following a search of our paper and electronic records, I have established that the information you requested is not held by the NHSBSA.

Caveats/Comments:

Volume of members requiring an RPSS is based on the information held for exceeding in previous years.

Additional RPSS’s will be required for members who had not previously exceeded but do exceed upon RPSS calculation. The volume of these cannot be identified until the calculations have been completed.

As of 11/04/2025 9,634 RPSS’s had been produced for members in this scenario, and these are in addition to the 130,383 members who are pre-emptively identified as requiring an RPSS.
