HC Deb 18 July 1996 vol 281 c650W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will commission research into the factors underlying staff morale in the NHS. [37188]

Mr. Malone

It is the responsibility of local employers to ensure good morale is maintained within the national health service work force. The NHS executive maintains a national overview of human resource effectiveness in the NHS and commissions, and collaborates with, research studies into human resource management issues.
