Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what the average length of a GP consultation was in each year since 1984 for which data is available.

Data is not held centrally on the average length of general practitioner (GP) appointments.
However, NHS England has advised that the latest information available indicates that the average consultation time with a GP is around 12 minutes (2006/07 GP Workload Survey).
