To ask the Secretary of State for Health how much was paid in bonuses to (a) staff and (b) senior managers in (i) strategic and special health authorities, (ii) NHS trusts and (iii) primary care trusts in (A) real and (B) nominal terms in each year since 1997. (107384)

Information on the pay of individuals in strategic and special health authorities, NHS trusts and PCT is not collected centrally by the Department as part of its central returns collation of NHS information.

NHS organisations are autonomous public bodies and, as such, the pay of their senior executive teams are a matter of public record and published in their annual accounts.
