Mr. Kennedy
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what assessment he has made of the implications for his Department of the December High Court ruling in respect of the Joint Committee on Higher Medical Training; if he has any plans to revise the arrangements by which the General Medical Council delegates to the medical royal colleges the regulation of post graduate medical training leading to United Kingdom accreditation; and if he will make a statement.
Mrs. Virginia Bottomley
An appeal has been lodged against the High Court ruling and we would not wish to comment until the outcome of the appeal is known.
