Midwifery

HC Deb 27 July 1993 vol 229 cc983-7W

Dr. Godman

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list the number of(a) female and (b) male midwifery staff, full-time and part-time, employed by each of the health boards in each of the past six years.

Mr. Stewart

[holding answer 26 July 1993]: The available information is shown in the tables and includes staff working in hospitals and in the community; community staff whose combined duties cover midwifery are also included. Midwives on senior nurse or teaching grades cannot be identified by specialty and are therefore not included.
