Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Frank Dobson (Labour), on Tuesday, 2 March 2010, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 58 members in total.


CRIMINAL RECORDS BUREAU CHECKS ON NHS SURGEONS

That this House shares the concern of the Royal College of Surgeons that NHS surgeons who have received enhanced clearance from the Criminal Records Bureau to treat child patients at their own NHS trust are being required by some other trusts to repeat the time-consuming Criminal Records Bureau checking process before being allowed to treat children at other hospitals, with consequent substantial delays in operations on children in need of specialist attention; and calls on the Secretary of State for Health to issue clear and binding instructions to trusts to end this practice immediately.
