§ Mr. ColvinTo ask the Secretary of State for Health by how much Southampton district health authority was underfunded for the purposes of nurses regrading.
§ Mr. MellorThe Government met the full cost of funding the nurse regrading exercise, based upon regional health authorities' own estimates of the costs. This is therefore a matter for the regional health authority and my hon. Friend may wish to contact the chairman, Mr. Buchanan, for such information as he requires.
