PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
BRITISH MEDICAL ASSOCIATION REPORT ON THE STAFF AND ASSOCIATE SPECIALISTS GROUP OF DOCTORS (9 February 2006)
Motion Details
That this House welcomes the publication of the British Medical Association's recent report, The Hidden Heroes of the NHS; notes the significant contribution that the Staff and Associate Specialists group of doctors play in providing patient care in the NHS; further notes that their contribution in delivering patient care has been largely unacknowledged; believes that recognition of and investment in this group of 12,500 or so senior doctors is much needed as they are an untapped resource and essential to the modernisation of the NHS; and calls on the Government to invest in this group of doctors to enable them to help deliver improvements across the NHS.
