Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many people are employed in NHS Improvement's Operational Productivity Directorate; what the total salary cost is for employing all such people; and how many employees in that Directorate earn more than £100,000.
When at full capacity the directorate will have approximately 140 members of staff. At this time it is not possible to provide a precise figure due to the ongoing recruitment process.
