  We report on the production of a large area, shallow, sky survey, from
XMM-Newton slews. The great collecting area of the mirrors coupled with the
high quantum efficiency of the EPIC detectors have made XMM-Newton the most
sensitive X-ray observatory flown to date. We use data taken with the EPIC-pn
camera during slewing manoeuvres to perform an X-ray survey of the sky. Data
from 218 slews have been subdivided into small images and source searched. This
has been done in three distinct energy bands; a soft (0.2-2 keV) band, a hard
(2-12 keV) band and a total XMM-Newton band (0.2-12 keV). Detected sources,
have been quality controlled to remove artifacts and a catalogue has been drawn
from the remaining sources. A 'full' catalogue, containing 4710 detections and
a 'clean' catalogue containing 2692 sources have been produced, from 14% of the
sky. In the hard X-ray band (2-12 keV) 257 sources are detected in the clean
catalogue to a flux limit of 4x10^-12 ergs/s/cm2. The flux limit for the soft
(0.2-2 keV) band is 6x10^-13 ergs/s/cm2 and for the total (0.2-12 keV) band is
1.2x10^-12 ergs/s/cm2. The source positions are shown to have an uncertainty of
8" (1-sigma confidence).
