Comparisons are not straightforward but NHS Wales reported ‘cumulative days delayed around 57,500′ in March 2026. https://www.gov.wales/nhs-activity-and-performance-summary-february-and-march-2026-html

Almost 2 000 per day so just higher than in Scotland, despite Wales only having around three fifths of the population.
