§ Mr. James Johnsonasked the Minister of Health if he will give the number of men and women, respectively, who are qualified physiotherapists in the National Health Service how many of these have left the profession because of inadequate salaries in each of the last five years, respectively; and what steps he is taking to ameliorate this situation.
§ Mr. LoughlinSeparate figures are not centrally available; the reasons for which individuals leave the profession are not classified but the latest staffing figures in September, 1964, show a net increase over September, 1963, in whole time equivalents, and salaries, increased last year, are again under review by the Whitley Council.
