(asked on 3rd November 2015) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what his assessment is of the effect of his contractual proposals for junior doctors on the number of hours worked by such doctors in Liverpool.
This question was answered on 10th November 2015
Our proposals include stronger limits on the hours worked by junior doctors, including to reduce the number of excessive hours junior doctors work each week; and strong contractual safeguards, with external scrutiny, to ensure that employers must address any variations from planned work schedules, to ensure safe working.
