HC Deb 17 May 1989 vol 153 c218W
Mr. French

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what proposals he has to improve the pay and career prospects of physiological measurement technicians.

Mr. Freeman

Pay and grading structures are matters for negotiation in the appropriate Whitley council. I understand that yesterday (16 May) the management side of the professional and technical B Whitley council made an offer to the staff side which would improve the pay and grading structures applicable to many NHS technical staff groups, including physiological measurement technicians.
