HC Deb 06 June 2000 vol 351 c229W
26. Mr. Bendel

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what assessment he has made of the average number of hours per week used by GP members of primary care groups on PCG-related work. [R] [122887]

Mr. Denham

We estimate that on average a typical board member of a Primary Care Group would need to spend between two and 2½ days per month on board business. However, the actual time commitment which each Primary Care Group member makes will depend on his or her role, responsibilities and personal commitment.
