Question:102 Mr. Allen asked the Minister for Health and Children if his attention has been drawn to a letter sent to a publication (details supplied) signed by 24 non-consultant hospital doctors from eight different hospitals who are non-EU doctors and who are claiming that an injustice has been done by not offering them the same equal opportunities and have accused the Government of discriminating against them and showing preferential treatment to the recently recruited doctors from India and Pakistan and that, by allowing them to bypass the assessment examination, the Government has given them preferential treatment; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
