NHS Agency Spend

The request was partially successful.

Dear Department of Health,

I am researching the trend in temporary staffing spend within the NHS.

If the information is held, please can you provide me with a breakdown of the total agency/contract staff spend per NHS trust for the previous 5 financial years? If data is not held for any past years, please provide information for those that you are able to.

Thank you very much.

Yours faithfully,

Mr J Taylor
