HC Deb 22 March 1965 vol 709 cc6-7W
56. Mr. Wood

asked the Minister of Health if he will now make a statement on his plans for reducing shortages of staff in the National Health Service.

Mr. K. Robinson

Local measures to improve recruitment continue, and I am about to discuss with Regional Hospital Boards how recruitment of various classes of hospital staff can be better organised. I am also reviewing the existing range of publicity material which I provide. A number of pay claims are before the respective Whitley Councils.
