Question
to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what estimate he has made of the cost of training a consultant in vascular surgery.

These figures reflect the pre-registration costs of tuition, living expenses/lost production and clinical placements and the post-graduate costs of tuition and replacement costs not the average cost to the taxpayer.
