HC Deb 26 May 1989 vol 153 c789W
Mr. Wallace

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what plans he has to attract male school leavers into the nursing profession.

Mr. Mellor

[holding answer 23 May 1989]: As part of our national nurse recruitment advertising in England we are currently developing a campaign designed to attract more men into the profession. The campaign will be aimed at older men as well as at school leavers and those who influence them such as parents, career advisers and school teachers.
