Dr. Richard Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how redundancy payments are calculated for executives of NHS trusts made redundant by trust mergers; and what the average such payment has been.[77242]

Mr. Hutton

The arrangements for the calculation of redundancy payments for National Health Service staff are set out in Section 45 and 46 of the Whitley General Council Handbook. A copy of this document is available in the Library.

Payments to executives of NHS trusts made redundant by trust mergers are not collected centrally.
