THE national press reported recently that a director of County Durham and Darlington NHS Trust claimed £123.75 for a meal for two whilst in London.
The average spend for food per patient in the trust’s area is £2.57 per day.
Perhaps we should request the unnamed director to refund the £118.61 overspend?
