Medical Training (Prioritisation) BillContribution
Beyond that, there is so much to be done about the way that newly qualified doctors are dealt with and supported, or not supported, within the NHS. We cannot run away from that. The noble Baroness, Lady Gerada, is right to say that there have been endless reports about this, but, when you get down to discovering what CEOs and medical directors are actually doing, and what senior consultants in individual hospitals are doing, you find an abdication of responsibility. In a sense, I very much support the Government in their approach.
