Recommendation 14

14 Paragraph: 71

Require Government to invest in and expand the Medical Training Initiative ethically for recruitment.

Recommendation
International recruitment from the developing world must be done in an ethical way, and the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges’ Medical Training Initiative, which recruits international medical graduates to work in the NHS for a fixed-term period with a specific remit of improving the quality of healthcare in developing countries is the gold standard of this practice. The Government should invest in and expand the Medical Training Initiative.
