PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
STUDENT BURSARIES FOR TRAINEE MIDWIVES (23 May 2005)
Motion Details
That this House recognises the vital role that midwives play in the NHS; notes that many student midwives face financial problems during their training and that, according to the Royal College of Midwives' poll, around a fifth of midwives fail to complete their studies due to financial hardship; and therefore supports the RCM campaign to provide a £10,000 non-means tested bursary for all student midwives, ensuring more students are attracted to midwifery, are able to complete their course and go on to become practising midwives.
