NHS Staff

Tim Loughton: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many NHS employees belong to a trade union; and which ones. [134811]

Mr. Hutton: The Department does not hold centrally the number of national health service employees who belong to a trade union.

The Office for National Statistics produces an estimate for the United Kingdom of the proportion of public sector employees with trade union membership, by industry classification, using data from the Labour Force Survey. The figure for health for autumn 2002 is 62 per cent.

17 Nov 2003 : Column 607W

Mr. Rosindell: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many staff are employed by the NHS in (a) the London borough of Havering and (b) each NHS trust in London. [137330]

17 Nov 2003 : Column 608W
