A client wants to know the exact timeframes for bugfixes, if a bug fix is logged is there a guaranteed timeframe it would be fixed within?
I can't see anything on the security pages of the website, just that major security bug fixes will be issued as a 5 day notice email to people to prepare for applying the hotfix.
But in this scenario how long would it typically be between logging a major security bug fix, to actually getting it published?

As soon as possible, we work with the reporter on timelines, depending on the severity of the issue. If you need to know more please email security@umbraco.com for details, and it would help to get some information on the website as well, so make sure to suggest that too.

Sounds like the right suggestion is, if it is a high risk bug, then it's fixed asap, but released 5 days later with the notice email that is sent out.
If it's a low risk, it is bundled in with the next patch release for that LTS

That's right, only critical security fixes get a 5 day heads-up period (so people can reserve time to do patching). The rest just gets fixed and a patch will come out.

But if you feel info is missing on the site, do email the security team so they can ammend.

ok thanks - I do think it would be useful for something to reference and provide clients
