Mr. Hancock: To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will make a statement on the use of (a) temporary nurses and (b) locum doctors in the NHS, with particular reference to NHS institutions covering Portsmouth and the rest of Hampshire. [115093] Ms Blears: A range of initiatives are underway to get better value for temporary staff in the National Health Service. Along with the roll-out of NHS Professionals, the aim is to reduce agency costs and to improve the quality of staff through agency framework agreements. Agency framework agreements fix the cost of agency staff, which can only increase in line with the recommendations of the pay review body. NHS trusts are using the national medical locum agency contract, with the contract value in the first quarter being £15 million. This is expected to show an average saving of 6 per cent. per trust on the medical locum expenditure per annum. The aim is to roll-out agency agreements and NHS Professionals to cover all aspects of the temporary healthcare labour market. This means covering not just nurses and doctors but also the Allied Health Professions and other healthcare professionals. Medical locums are already covered by a national agency framework agreement, and a NHS Professionals service for doctors is being developed. By ensuring that all temporary staffing demand is handled through NHS Professionals, the savings and outcomes from the agency project will be maximised. The new NHS Professionals Special Health Authority will enable better strategic management of the healthcare temporary staffing labour market and ensure that all NHS trusts are using NHS Professionals by April 2005. Hampshire and The Isle of Wight Strategic Health Authority have advised that trusts in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, including Portsmouth are working towards using NHS Professionals by the target date of April 2005 and are using, or working towards using, the national medical locum agency contract.

Mr. Hoban: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many dentists treated NHS patients in Hampshire in each year from 1997 to 2002. [115555] Ms Blears: The table shows the number of general dental service (CDS) dentists in Hampshire area at 30 September in each of the years 1997 to 2002. The Hampshire area covers North and Mid Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and South East Hampshire and Southampton and South West Hampshire. The number of dentist includes principals, assistants and vocational dental practitioners. General Dental Service: Number of dentists, at 30 September 1997 to 2002 Hampsire (including Isle of Wight) _________________________________________________________________________________________________. At 30 September Number of GDS dentists 1997 569 1998 601 1999 623 2000 628 2001 644 2002 647 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. These figures are on a headcount basis rather than whole time equivalent (wte) basis and therefore take no account of part time working. In the GDS, dentists can vary the amount of National Health Service work they do; many also do some private work.

Mr. Hoban: To ask the Secretary of State for Health how many patients were registered with NHS dentists in Hampshire in each year from 1997 to 2002. [115554] Ms Blears: The table shows the number of registrations in the Hampshire area at 30 September in each of the years 1997 to 2002. The Hampshire area covers North and Mid Hampshire, Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and South East Hampshire and Southampton and South West Hampshire Registrations lapse if patients do not return to their dentists within 15 months. Registrations will exclude patients who haven't been to their general dental service (GDS) dentist within the past 15 months and patients who receive dental treatment from other National Health Service dental services. The September 1997 figure is not comparable with the later figures because of change in the registration periods for adults and children. The figures do not include patients attending the dental access centres which opened during the period and whose patients are not registered. Patients wishing to register with a GDS dentist can obtain details of dentists accepting new patients by contacting NHS Direct. General Dental Service: Number of registrations in Hampshire area at 30 September1997 to 2002 _________________________________________________________________________________________________. At 30 September Number of patients registered (thousands) 1997 951 1998 842 1999 823 2000 824 2001 818 2002 801 _________________________________________________________________________________________________.
