Dear Freedom.of.information (HOMERTON UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL NHS FOUNDATION TRUST),
Thank you for providing the above information.
Within this response you've stated the following '1. The number of agency staff shifts and amount spent on agency staff,broken down by department, in the year to date. 2. The number of bank staff shifts and amount spent on bank staff, broken down by department, in the year to date.'
I would therefore expect to receive four sets of rates opposed to the two that's been provided.
I have also cross referenced this information with the total hours provided within your initial response and the figures don't match.
For the avoidance of doubt, can I please request that you collate the information and re-send? Only providing the total agency spend of your Trust, for the last financial year, and the total hours supplied by temporary agency staff to your Trust, for the listed staffing categories.
Thank you in advance.
Yours sincerely,
Rhiannon Andrews
