§ 13. Dr. Winstanleyasked the Secretary of State for Social Services whether he is aware that many social workers in training are unable to have the experience of a student placement in a psychiatric hospital for lack of a senior psychiatric social worker to teach them; and if he will therefore take steps to increase the number of such senior workers.
§ Mr. SnowYes; and I hope that a recent revision of the Whitley Council agreement which includes changes in the172W grading structure will enable hospital authorities to appoint more student supervisors.
