HC Deb 09 March 1984 vol 55 c746W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he has now received the report of the joint board of clinical nursing studies on the research into post-basic clinical studies; and what action he proposes to take.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

This report was received early in 1983 and, following its scientific assessment, the researcher was asked to disseminate its fundings widely with a view to encouraging better informed planning of continuing education for the clinical nurse. All district nursing officers and directors of nurse education have been notified of the report through the JBCNS bulletin. It was available through the JBCNS until June 1983 and is now available through the English National Board for Nursing, Midwifery, and Health Visiting.
