A freedom of information request showed the East of England Ambulance Service Trust spent £922,984 in pay-offs, an average of more than £150,000 each.

Despite being laid-off as a part of a restructuring process to make about £10m in savings, they are again working back at the trust.

North Norfolk MP Norman Lamb has today labelled the decision as “completely unacceptable” and is calling for an explanation.
