FOI Request

I would like to submit a Freedom of Information Act request regarding the cost of staffing, I have previously requested this information as part of other correspondence but it has not been provided. Specifically, I would like to know, What is the cost of a Band 5 nurse working a bank shift? What is the equivalent cost of an Band 3 Agency HCA for the same shift to the trust, not just their hourly rate.?
