Number of pay banding appeals

The request was successful.

Dear Wye Valley NHS Trust,

I would like to make a Freedom of Information request.

Junior doctors receive a banding supplement to their base pay.

In the year 2015, in your trust how many pay banding appeals for junior doctors were there? How many were successful? And how many (total) junior doctors were involved?

Following each of these appeals, how many resulted in a change in working pattern or extra staff/doctors being hired?

Very roughly, how many junior doctor have you employed in 2015?

Yours faithfully,

J Sturgeon
