Answer
My Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care has not made an assessment of the reasons for professional complaints to the General Medical Council (GMC).
The GMC is the regulator of all medical doctors, physician assistants, and physician assistants in anaesthesia, still legally known as anaesthesia associates and physician associates, practising in the United Kingdom. The GMC is independent of the Government, is directly accountable to Parliament, and is responsible for operational matters concerning the discharge of its statutory duties.
