Golden Hello Payments - FOI Response Register

1.    May I ask how many so-called Golden Hello payments for new GPs at 2C and 17C practices have been made in your board area since these were introduced in 2018?

8 total
2018/19 <5
2019/20 <5
2020/21 0
2021/22 <5
2022/23 0
2023/24 0
Where we have given <5 answers, this is because NHS Shetland considers that providing
more specific information carries a high risk of identifying individuals. As such and in
accordance with FOISA s 16(1), NHS Shetland confirms that it holds the information
requested but that it is exempt from disclosure under FOISA s 38(1)(b) as read with s 38
(2A) as the information constitutes personal data and disclosure would breach the
confidentiality of the data subjects.

2.    Can you tell me the total amount for these payments in each year?
