Text

I thank the Minister for his answer. Given that the BMA has highlighted the fact that many GP practices have seen no real benefit from the £5 million in the 2024-25 GMS package that was announced by the previous Minister, does he agree that it is important that we get a long-term model of GP indemnity right? If not, that will continue to act as a chill factor for GPs who wish to practise in or remain practising in Northern Ireland.
