Self-Regulation Of The Medical Profession

EDM number 1010 in 1999-00, proposed by Frank Cook on 24/07/2000.

That this House, bearing in mind the circumstances demonstrated by the recent cases of Dr Shipman and Messrs Ledward and Neale, registers grave concern at the failure and/or tardiness of the medical profession to police properly its membership; and calls upon Her Majesty's Government to institute as a matter of urgency an independent body to receive and assess complaints related to all those professionals who exercise at whatever level the power of life and death over those individuals committed to their care.

This motion has been signed by a total of 34 MPs.
