WRITTEN QUESTION TO THE MINISTER FOR HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES BY DEPUTY A.E. JEUNE OF ST. BRELADE

ANSWER TO BE TABLED ON TUESDAY 29th MARCH 2011

Question

Would the Minister state whether any professional body registered Medical, Nursing or PAM (Profession Allied to Medicine) staff have been (or will be) granted Voluntary Redundancy (VR) or Voluntary Early Retirement (VER) in the past 12 months or next 6 months and, if so, please list the qualification, post held, years of service for which VR/VER was paid and indicate the number of years remaining to normal retirement age of each post holder?

Answer

All staff groups with the exception of those employed as nurses and doctors were invited to apply for VR or VER

No-one  employed  as  a  nurse  or  doctor  has  therefore  been  (or  will  be)  granted  Voluntary Redundancy or Voluntary Early Retirement in the past 12 months or next 6 months.

Three requests were received from Professionals Allied to Medicine (Physiotherapy) and have been granted Voluntary Redundancy or Voluntary Early Retirement in the past 12 months. In addition a Project Manager who is also a qualified mental health nurse applied for, and was granted, VR.

None are planned for the forthcoming six months and no further applications have been received from other professionally registered practitioners.

Information relating to years of services cannot be released into public domain. Releasing it would enable VR and VER payments amounts to be readily calculated in breach the postholders' right to privacy
