Letter of correction from Dan Poulter:
An error has been identified in the written answer given to the hon. Member for Leicester West (Liz Kendall) on 28 November 2013.
The full answer given was as follows:
Dr Poulter
NHS England's total revenue budget for 2013-14 is £95.873 million, of which £2.016 million is to be spent on administration. How all spending is allocated is a matter for NHS England. NHS England has informed us that the administration budget for NHS England, excluding area teams and commissioning support units (its National Support Centre), is £332.2 million.
As at the end of October 2013, NHS England had 886.15 whole time equivalent staff in post within its National Support Centre.
The total pay budget for the total agreed staff numbers within the National Support Centre (1,106.48 whole time equivalent) is £75.2 million. There are currently vacancies within this staff structure.
The correct answer should have been:
