Comment on: Hunt should remove workforce straitjackets
In terms of saving money in staffing costs, surely Trusts must be groaning under the enormous costs of the locum doctor workforce. It is simply not sustainable to continue to fund the locum option to the degree which we now see. The number of doctors registering with the GMC from India and Pakistan is plummeting, and the only real solution now is to recruit doctors from other EU countries. With the recession hitting Europe hard, it may just be that the UK can benefit from this "mobile medical work force", but they had better hurry as other countries such as Germany are in a similar situation and they might just beat us to the mark!
