Debbie Abrahams – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Debbie Abrahams on 2014-06-16.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many redundancy payments have been recovered from NHS staff who have been made redundant and subsequently re-employed by an NHS organisation in each of the last three years.

Dr Daniel Poulter

The Department does not hold information relating to the recovery of payments from National Health Service staff made redundant and subsequently re-employed by an NHS organisation.

This information will be held locally by NHS organisations.

The NHS is set to save £5.5 billion this Parliament and £1.5 billion each year thereafter, reducing unnecessary bureaucracy and freeing up extra resources for patient care.
