PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(3 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans his Department has to invest in the recruitment and retention of radiologists in the Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Berkshire West Integrated Care Board.

Asked by:
Clive Jones (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

Information on local plans is not collected centrally by the Department. National Health Service organisations are responsible for their own recruitment, and for developing their own workforce plans based on service needs.

At a national level, we are committed to training the staff the NHS needs, and we will work closely with partners in education to do this. NHS England continue to lead on a range of initiatives to boost retention of existing staff and ensure the NHS remains an attractive career choice for new recruits.
