Notifying members of the GMC’s new campaign “Licensing: It’s time to decide”

We want to make our members aware of the GMC’s new campaign “Licensing: It’s time to decide”. This is being introduced this autumn.

The GMC will be writing to all registered doctors over the course of the next few weeks, asking them to decide whether or not they want a licence to practise

After licensing is introduced, doctors wishing to undertake any form of medical practice for which the UK law currently requires GMC registration - such as writing prescriptions, and signing death and cremation certificates - will need to be both registered AND, hold a licence to practise.

More information about this is available on the GMC website - www.gmc-uk.org
