could you please supply me with data on the average amount of heavy metals in a person's body grouped by age and other demographics please?
This data can be focused specifically on Torfaen residents,
Welsh residents or GB/UK residents as a whole.
Thank you for your recent request.
Public Health Wales do not hold this information.
Public Health Wales is the public health service for Wales and as such is an independent NHS Trust. Therefore, do not have access to this information. As an organisation we have no jurisdiction over the activities of Health Boards and other NHS Wales organisations. This means we do not routinely have access to the data they produce.
