Proceeding contribution from Lord Risby (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 February 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on NHS Staffing.


NHS Staffing

I agree that the level of training for doctors is of high quality, but over the last few years, because of the appalling mismatch between the training and production of junior doctors and the lack of opportunities, many of them have been unable to find jobs, so they have emigrated. I am pleased about the Government's announcement, but I hope the Minister will not resile from the fact that over the last few years the morale of junior doctors has been severely tested by considerable confusion on the part of the Government, the results of which are clear to see.
