HC Deb 31 January 1984 vol 53 c132W
33. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will publish in the Official Report a table showing the sums allocated in each of the last five years within the North-West Thames region for management studies for nurses; if the implementation of the Griffiths report will mean that these studies will no longer be organised; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

Information requested is not available centrally. We are still considering the recommendations made in the NHS management inquiry report, but their implementation would almost certainly require more, not less, management training for professional staff.
