Not provided to you? No. Not provided to the defense? Maybe.
The discovery rules call for first an informal request, then a formal. It may take a hearing and court order and a judge getting involved. This sounds absurd, but I can't guess what the delay is. If your attorney has it but hasn't shared with you - different story.
Talk to your lawyer.

You need to ask your attorney who actually knows the case and facts.
