HC Deb 08 January 2003 vol 397 c281WS
Dr. Murrison

To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many foreign health care workers were recruited by the NHS, broken down by profession in each year since 1990. [88000]

Mr. Hutton.

The Department does not collect data on the country of qualification for nurses, midwives and other health professionals.

The Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) publishes an annual statistical report which includes information about the number of foreign nurses and midwives on the register. This data can be found on the NMC website at: www.nmc-uk.org.uk.
