Controversy: In the UK The National Audit Office found that SBS first recognised in January 2014 that patients may have come to harm as a result of what was at the time a fast-rising backlog of undelivered paperwork but despite staff raising concerns, the firm did not alert the department or NHS England until March 2016 - a delay of 26 months. The NAO concluded that SBS was then “obstructive and unhelpful” with regards to the subsequent inquiry launched by NHS England.[33] In 2017 a UK Commons public accounts committee were told that at least 12,000 missing papers - which could include patient records and cancer tests had not been processed by SBS,[34][35][36]
