§ Mr. DenhamTo ask the Secretary of State for Health how many people were employed(a) full time and (b) part time in the national health service in Hampshire in each year since 1987.
§ Dr. MawhinneyThe county of Hampshire consists of four whole DHAs; Portsmouth and South East Hampshire, Southampton and South West Hampshire, Winchester, Basingstoke and North Hampshire; and part of West Surrey and North East Hampshire DHA. As it is not possible to identify separately the information for individual units in West Surrey and North East Hampshire, the global figures have been included in the Hampshire figures given in the table.
The figures for 1991 exclude non-professional non-medical staff1 as they were collected on the Korner aggregate forms (KM 49) and it is not possible to disaggregate the information to district level.
