Question
What is the average annual study budget available for resident doctors in Wales who are undertaking training or professional development?
Answer
Answered by Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care
As set out in my response to your written question WQ97783, the current annual study budget for individual resident doctors is £600.
As the study leave policy states, residents are able to roll over any unspent funding for a one-year period into the following year. This provides flexibility and ensures resident doctors can effectively use their study leave budget.
