HC Deb 08 April 2003 vol 403 c234W
Dr. Evan Harris

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many consultants there are in each accident and emergency department in England. [106207]

Mr. Hutton

Information on the number of accident and emergency (A&E) consultants within trusts which have an A&E department have been placed in the Library.

Where this figure is less than 10, there is a risk that individual doctors could be identified. This is contrary to the Data Protection Act 1998. For this reason, published data is rounded to the nearest 10 or where the figure is less than five, the number is replaced with a star.
