Question

To ask the Scottish Government how many so-called Golden Hello payments for new GPs each NHS board has made in each since these were introduced,


Answer

NHS Boards are not required to inform the Scottish Government of the number of Golden Hello payments that made to GPs in each financial year. NHS Boards are responsible for all contractual arrangements with their GP practices. The Scottish Government does not routinely monitor these arrangements.
