On the Agenda - Call to vet 'foreign doctors' properly

In a nutshell MPs have urged NHS Trusts to make changes to the way foreign doctors who provide out-of-hours GP care are vetted. The Commons Health Select Committee warned that patients are at risk if doctors are incompetent or not fluent in English because they have not been properly checked. The committee said action was needed to ensure all doctors coming to work here have a grasp of English.
