Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to page 8 of the Royal College of General Practitioners' report entitled Fit for the Future GP Pressures 2023, published in March 2023, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies of the finding that 95 per cent of general practice staff said that additional clinical staff over winter would help them deliver the care that patients need.

NHS England committed to a review of the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme by the end of 2023, with this work covering the performance of the scheme to date and informing the Government’s approach to any future support for additional clinical roles in general practice.
