HC Deb 03 July 1980 vol 987 c670W
Mr. David Steel

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he is satisfied that the annual return by whole-time consultants in the National Health Service in Scotland, certifying that their gross income from private practice does not exceed 10 per cent. of their gross salary, constitutes an adequate check on the proper operation of their contracts.

Mr. Younger

Yes, although in exceptional circumstances health boards may call for detailed accounts.
