§ Mr. Nicholas BennettTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales what is the average remuneration per general practitioner in(a) each family practitioner committee area, (b) urban areas, (c) rural areas and (d) Wales as a whole.
§ Mr. GristThe information is not readily available centrally. The review body on doctors and dentists' remuneration recommends the level of general medical practitioners' income. In 1989–90 the average gross income of GMPs in the United Kingdom is intended to be £60,000. This figure reflects the review body's recommendation in respect of GM Ps' net income and indirectly reimbursed expenses which the Government have accepted in full, plus estimated directly reimbursed expenses. The recommended average net income is £31,105.
