Method of calculation of 4200 extra Health Visitors

The request was successful.

Dear Department of Health,

I would be grateful if you could give me details of how the figure of 4200 extra health visitors by April 2015, as detailed in the recent operating framework, was determined? What data and analysis was used to arrive at this figure?

Many thanks for your help

Yours faithfully,

Patrick Kirkham
