HC Deb 06 December 1990 vol 182 c181W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what is the annual cost to the national health service in the Doncaster district health service for staff who have been employed through agencies as nurses, operating department assistants, ancillary and other staff.

Mrs. Virginia Bottomley

Information derived from the 1989–90 annual accounts of the Doncaster health authority is as follows:

Expenditure on Non-National Health Service (Agency etc.) staff
£
Nursing 11,108
Ancillary Nil
All other staff (including medical and dental) 184,417

Expenditure specifically on the employment of operating department assistants is not collected centrally.

For more detailed information I suggest the hon. Member contacts Mr. J. G. S. Smith, the health authority chairman.
