§ Mr. CohenTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales how many whole-time equivalent midwives there are at each increment point of each pay scale.
§ Mr. Gwilym JonesDetailed breakdowns of nursing and midwifery staff employed by health authorities and NHS trusts into occupational groups such as that requested are not considered reliable. However, I refer the hon. Gentleman to a letter that I sent to the hon. Member for Ynys Môn (Mr. Jones) dated 13 July, a copy of which is in the Library of the House, which gave a breakdown of nursing and midwifery staff in post as at 30 September 1992—excluding students and pupils and staff nursery staff—by grade and pay spine point.
