I think it’s an important point in terms of our ability to recruit and retain doctors from around the world, including those who may have been trained in Wales or the wider UK and want to come to live, train and work in Wales for the future. There’s a balance here about the assurance we should properly want in terms of a doctor’s professional competence and their previous record where they are currently or most recently have been working. And, actually, it’s about making it as easy as possible for highly trained and welcome individuals to come and provide a service that we do need in this country.

That’s why, as part of the ‘Train. Work. Live.’ campaign, this was actually part of the feature, in trying to make this easier. That’s why we have a single point of contact created to try and make it an easier process for that person, or that group of people—often, doctors come with partners. So, it’s to understand what we do to make it easier for them to come here and to work, as well as to live here as well.

So, that’s part of the work that we’re doing. I’m always interested in specific examples where that doesn’t appear to have been the case. So, I’d be very happy to look at the detail of the issue that you raise, to understand how that matches up to what we’re doing now. And if it hasn’t met our own expectations of how we make it easier, we’ll give appropriate assurance of what we can do to actually improve what we currently do. There’s no point pretending that everything is perfect—it rarely is—but I’m always keen to learn from what’s happening at the moment.
