Pay and nursing performance.
Discusses the merits and demerits of performance-related pay (PRP) with respect to nursing in the NHS but concludes that justification for it remains unproven through the absence of hard evidence in support of its efficiency. Sees previous experience of the practicalities of implementing PRP and the fear that it will be neither cheap nor effective in solving "productivity" problems as hostile to its introduction in the NHS.
