FREEDOM OF INFORMATION – PUBLICATION SCHEME

 

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 obliges the practice to produce a Publication Scheme. A Publication Scheme is a guide to the ‘classes’ of information the practice intends to routinely make available. This scheme is available from reception.

 

All GP practices are required to declare the mean earnings (e.g average pay) for GPs working to deliver NHS services to patients at each practice.

 

The average pay for GPs working in Quantock Vale Surgery in the last financial year was £80,621 before tax and National Insurance. This is for 3 full time GPs, no part time GPs, and one locum GP who worked in the practice for more than six months.
