Public Expenditure on Health and Personal Social Services 2009 - Health Committee Contents

10.  FOUNDATION TRUSTS

10.1.4  What was the expenditure by Foundation Trusts been on non-NHS (agency, etc.) staff (nursing, midwifery and health visiting staff; and other staff), for each year in respect of which data are available, in cash terms and as a percentage of total staff costs? (Q121)

Answer

  1.  Monitor does not collect information on the above expenditure in the categories shown.

  2.  NHS foundation trusts report aggregate expenditure on agency and contract staff as part of their annual accounts, which were presented to Parliament in the summer.

  3.  The expenditure on agency and contract staff has increased as a percentage of total staff costs and in cash terms in the three years from 2006-07: in 2006-07, it was 2.8% (£177 million), in 2007-08: 3.3% (£325 million), and in 2008-09: 4.3% (£622 million). During this period the number of NHS foundation trusts has increased from 59 (March 2007), to 89 (March 2008) and to 115 (March 2009).

  4.  See table 121 for a detailed breakdown of expenditure on agency and contract staff as a percentage of total staff costs by NHS foundation trust.
