Chi Onwurah – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Chi Onwurah on 2015-02-12.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what the average number of days training of full-time equivalent staff employed in his Department was in each of the last three financial years.

Dr Daniel Poulter

The Department is committed to developing its staff. Individuals and local teams arrange a variety of developmental activities, including formal training courses. The number of hours/days for each individual is not recorded centrally. To gather this information would incur disproportionate costs.
