Nurses: Pay
(asked on 27th June 2014) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what the average gross earnings of a full-time equivalent NHS nurse were in (a) cash and (b) real terms in (i) England and (ii) York in 1996-97 and in each year since.
The primary source of National Health Service earnings data is published by the Health and Social Care Information Centre. Data on average basic pay per full-time equivalent is taken from this publication. This is based on Electronic Staff Record data which is only available from 2008-09 onwards so the data series cannot be extended into early years. Data relating to York relates to the former North Yorkshire and York Primary Care Trust and York Teaching Hospitals Foundation Trust. For reference a comparison of basic pay per headcount, which has not specifically been requested, is provided.
