PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(20 January 2025)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to the oral statement by the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care of 15 January 2025, Official Report, column 363, and pursuant to the Answer of 18 December 2024 to Question 19158 on GPs, what the evidential basis is that there are hundreds of GPs recruited by the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme.

Asked by:
Clive Jones (Liberal Democrat)

Data on the number of general practitioners employed through the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme is not currently published. Information on the number of recently qualified general practitioners for which primary care networks are claiming reimbursement via the Additional Roles Reimbursement Scheme is currently being collated. We are working to verify the data and establish its reliability, which is necessary before any dataset can be published.
