HC Deb 06 February 1963 vol 671 c76W
Dr. D. Johnson

asked the Minister of Health whether he will consider obtaining and publishing information about the size of the various grades in the hospital service and the number of overseas doctors working temporarily in them as recommended by the Report of the Joint Working Party on the Medical Staffing Structure of the Service; if he will give consideration to the form and the intervals at which this information might appear; and if he will also consider whether it should be published in such form as will enable the figures from year to year to be compared with each other.

Mr. Powell

This information is given in my Department's Annual Reports, except that overseas doctors in the senior grades are not shown separately; and not all those in the junior grades are temporary.
