Notes:

  1. Data as at 30 September in each year.
  2. NHS Workforce figures are not available by constituency. Mid Sussex constituency was contained within and serviced by East Sussex Downs and Weald PCT and West Sussex Teaching PCT from 2009-2012 and NHS High Weald Lewes Havens CCG and NHS Horsham and Mid Sussex CCG from 2013 onwards. These trusts are not geographically co-terminus and thus the figures are not comparable over a time series.
