 GOVT TO INCREASE "SUPER-NURSE" NUMBERS 
 The Government is to increase the      
 number of so-called "super-nurses" in  
 Britain's hospitals.                   
                                        
 The super-nurse scheme, with salaries  
 of £40,000 offered, has been criticised
 for targeting just a handful of staff. 
                                        
 But Health Secretary Frank Dobson told 
 BBC1's Breakfast With Frost the number 
 of super-nurses would rise to thousands
                                        
 Mr Dobson also said 1,600 trained      
 nurses who had left the profession had 
 gone back on the wards.
