HC Deb 21 February 1989 vol 147 c608W
61. Mr. Cox

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will make a statement on the present position regarding nurses' regrading.

Mr. Freeman

All nurses and midwives have been told their new grades and have received their backpay from 1 April 1988. This has resulted in an average pay increase for 1988 of 17.9 per cent. and provides a greatly improved career structure.
