Proceeding contribution from Evan Harris (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 24 May 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Modernising Medical Careers.
Modernising Medical Careers
It is right that there should be an increased number of training posts, but they will be run-through posts to nowhere if there is no expansion in the number of consultant posts in order that those who are being trained can be provided with jobs at the end of the process. It is not only service that dictates the number of consultants, but policy—national policy to provide trainers for those extra people, the European working time directive and the consultant-led service. Will the Secretary of State undertake to get a national grip on the increased number of consultant posts needed to provide those policy outcomes and careers for all the junior doctors who are dedicating themselves to training?
