THE role of a GP selected to fight the election for Labour today comes under fresh scrutiny as it emerged he is the highest-paid executive among 23 new groups in Yorkshire given key powers by Ministers under controversial health service reforms.

Mark Hayes has temporarily stood aside from some decision-making to avoid conflicts of interest at NHS Vale of York Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) where The Yorkshire Post can reveal he was paid £180-£185,000 as chief clinical officer in 2013-14.

Dr Hayes told colleagues after his selection as candidate in Selby and Ainsty that he will continue to provide “strategic direction and performance guidance” in the top role at the CCG, which is in charge of NHS spending worth £360 million.
