HC Deb 01 April 1980 vol 982 cc158-9W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales, in view of the progressive increase in the work load of radiographers, if he will issue figures for the major district hospitals in Wales showing the extent to which they are understaffed.

Mr. Wyn Roberts

There are no nationally agreed standards for determining staffing levels for radiographers. However, I understand that currently there are 12.5 vacancies—whole-time equivalents—for radiographers at the major district hospitals in Wales.
