The below Parliamentary question was asked by Chi Onwurah on 2015-02-12.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what his Department’s training budget was in each of the last three financial years.

Jane Ellison

Learning and development is funded from both a central departmental budget and from local directorate budgets.

The core Department’s annual central Learning and Development budget allocations for each of the last three financial years can be found in the table below.

Directorates have discretion in how they use their local budgets to support professional and technical training according to business need. These local budgets are not ring fenced specifically and therefore have been excluded in the table above.
