Surely the proper solution here is publication of the full detail of the
flows to and from waiting lists? E.g. Numbers joining the list, numbers
dealt with in medical terms, number died while waiting, numbers transferred
to other lists, etc. etc.
Isn't there any standard framework for the presentation of waiting list
statistics that identifies such flows?
