Health and Social Care Bill

If that rumour is so, I raise rather a serious issue. Irrespective of any personalities or any individual job, if a job is to be paid at a much higher rate than that at which it has already been advertised, I understand that under the Government’s own rules—certainly those rules that they supply to charities which receive grants from them—that job would have to be readvertised. I hope that that will be looked at. If someone has already been selected and will be paid more without the job being readvertising, some quite serious questions could be asked.
