Mr. Foulkes

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will list for each NHS trust in Scotland what decision has been taken on the claim by nurses for an increase in wages for the current year; and if he will make a statement. [24054]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

[holding answer 15 May 1995]: To date, 43 out of the 47 NHS trusts in Scotland have either made offers to nursing staff at local level or have indicated their intention to do so in the near future.

Mr. Wallace

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland what was the total wage and salary costs in each year since 1988 in(a) actual terms and (b) at current prices, of health service employees, including management and clerical grades, in respect of each health board area and NHS trust in Scotland; and what percentage each sum represented of the total wage and salary costs of the respective health board or NHS trust. [20606]

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

[holding answer 2 May 1995]: The information is set out in the table. Figures for 1994–95 are not yet available.

The figures for administrative and clerical staff costs include amounts for those senior nurses and clinicians who have transferred to the general/senior managers' pay scales, particularly in latter years.
