HC Deb 12 March 2002 vol 381 c999W
Mr. Bercow

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what has been the cost to public funds in 2001–02 of individual learning accounts to staff in the national health service. [15767]

Mr. Hutton

We are investing up to £10 million in 2001–02 to support the commitment in the "NHS Plan" (a copy of which is available in the Library) that national health service staff who do not have a professional qualification will have access to either a NHS learning account of £150 each or national vocational qualification training to level 2 or 3.
