The RCP has submitted written evidence to the health and social care select committee’s inquiry on the department’s integration white paper.  

The RCP’s response calls on the government to introduce a positive and welcoming migratory system for doctors to ensure a sustainable and safe NHS.

The RCP in Wales has responded to the National Assembly for Wales Health, Social Care and Sport Committee consultation on the Public Health (Wales) Bill. 

The government announced as part of Budget 2016 that it would introduce a new Soft Drinks Industry Levy from April 2018.

The RCP believes that physicians and medical professionals have a key role to play not only in managing ill health, but also in supporting people to live healthier lives.

Hospitals are more than bricks and mortar: they are a part of the local community, delivering expert care far beyond hospital walls. Everyone should be supported to be well, and have access to high-quality care when they are ill.
