To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what the GP-to-patient ratio was in (a) North Lancashire Community Care Group (CCG), (b) Blackpool, Fylde and Wyre CCG and (c) England in (i) 2010, (ii) 2011, (iii) 2012, (iv) 2013 and (v) 2014.
The requested information is contained in the table below.
General practitioners (excluding Registrars, Retainers and Locums) per 100,000 patients, 2010-2016
20101 | 20111 | 20121 | 2013 | 2014 | September 2015 | March 20162 | |
England | 63.8 | 64 | 63.7 | 63.5 | 63.4 | 62.2 | 62.1 |
NHS Lancashire North Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) | 76 | 75.2 | 76.7 | 74.6 | |||
NHS Blackpool CCG | 63.1 | 61.9 | 52.4 | 51.5 | |||
NHS Fylde and Wyre CCG | 61.7 | 61.8 | 57.7 | 61 | |||
Blackpool Primary Care Trust (PCT)1 | 61 | 63.5 | 65.3 | ||||
North Lancashire Teaching PCT1 | 61.7 | 63.1 | 64.8 |
Notes:
1Prior to 2013, CCGs did not exist. The organisations shown in the table are those in operation at the time of each NHS Workforce Census. Blackpool PCT and North Lancashire Teaching PCT are not completely coterminous with the three CCGs shown from 2013 onwards, but the data provides the closest mapping available between years.
2March 2016 data was collected and published in full on the workforce Minimum Dataset for the first time in March 2016. These figures have been included to provide the most up-to-date information.
Headcount methodology: the latest headcount methodology means this data is not fully comparable with previous years, due to improvements that make it a more stringent count of absolute staff numbers.

surely information like this is available independently? why does someone have to look this up for you Cat?, is it not available on an intranet or other government produced information source?
