Mr. R. C. Mitchell
asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what proportion of all part-time hospital consultants are paid over £10,000 a year including merit payments; what proportion are paid between £7,500 and £10,000 a year; and what proportion are paid less than £7,500 a year.
Dr. Owen
The salary of a part-time consultant depends on his contractual commitment, his position on the incremental scale, and on whether he holds a distinction award and, if so, at what level. I regret that this information is not readily available for part-time consultants.
