HC Deb 25 November 1985 vol 87 c507W
Mr. White

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many nurses earn less than £101 per week; and what percentage this is of total nurses.

Mr. Hayhoe

I regret this information is not held centrally. However it is estimated from earnings data from 10 regional health authorities, that in the period April-September 1984, 30 per cent. of full-time nursing staff, virtually all either learners or unqualified nursing auxiliaries, earned on average less than £101 per week.
