PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
(30 June 2025)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, pursuant to the Answer of 4 April 2024 to Question 19410 on General Practitioners: Labour Turnover, what estimate he has made of the number of GPs on ICB funded training schemes which are equivalent to the (a) General Practice Fellowship and (b) Supporting Mentors schemes.

Asked by:
Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat)

Answer

Data on integrated care board (ICB) funded training schemes, their equivalent to the General Practice Fellowship scheme and the Supporting Mentors scheme, or the numbers of staff benefitting from these schemes is not held centrally.

While NHS England provides funding, through ICB allocations and the Primary Care Transformation Fund, to develop general practice services and teams, ICBs have the autonomy and flexibility to make decisions that serve the best interests of local people and communities.
