Conservative — Hinckley and Bosworth

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 January 2025

Debate

Access to Primary Care

Contribution

To improve access, the Government have announced a planned expansion of advice and guidance, and GPs will be paid £20 per advice and guidance request they make for further expert advice from consultants. How do the Government expect this expansion to take place? Will they be mandating it given that the current position of the British Medical Association, under its collective action, is that GPs should “Stop engaging with the e-Referral Advice & Guidance pathway”?
