This request asked for information on the number of agency staff (as defined by the agency rules for trusts) employed by NHS Improvement, and the number at certain pay rates. The request also asked for the number of agency staff that appeared in permanent roles on the organisation structure chart, and related information such as the their grade and length of time in post, and information on the number of Very Senior Manager posts that appear as permanent roles and are filled by agency staff, and related information.
