Within this hospital trust, please disclose the number of training sessions and/or study days for junior doctors and nurses which have been cancelled between November 1 2013 until the date of this request.
I would also like to find out how many core training sessions, higher speciality training sessions and General Practitioner (GP) training sessions have been cancelled.
Where applicable, please disclose how many of those cancelled training days and/or study days which apply to both nurses and junior doctors have been rescheduled.
Where possible, please state how many nurses and junior doctors were expected to attend each cancelled session.
“Core training” for junior doctors refers to: Core medical training, core anaesthetics training, core psychiatry training, and core surgical training.
The request possibly relates to hundreds of sessions, to look into this information from multiple sources will exceed 18 hours. Also, we would have to export certain reports from our external provider we are unable to anticipate the full cost and time of this.
The Trust does hold the information you have requested, however we estimate that compliance with your request would exceed the appropriate costs limit under section 12 of the Freedom of information Act 2000. This is currently £450. The appropriate limit would be exceeded if it would require more than 18 hours work.
