HC Deb 18 February 1994 vol 237 cc1047-8W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what salaries are payable to chief executives of(a) regional health authorities, (b) district health authorities, (c) district family health services authorities and (d) hospitals currently and in the previous year.

Dr. Mawhinney

Salary ranges for regional general managers, district general managers, family health services authority general managers and general managers of directly managed hospital and community units are shown in the table. In line with increases made to other groups of public sector staff in 1993 an increase of 1.5 per cent. was made to the salary ranges from 1 September 1993. Individual salaries are dependent on a variety of factors including personal performance against locally set targets. The salaries of chief executives of national health service trusts are matters for trust boards. Information on those emoluments is included in annual accounts available locally. My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State announced on 13 January that from 1 April 1994 each NHS authority and trust will be required to publish an annual report which includes information on the total emoluments of their general manager or chief executive.
