Lords ChamberMy Lords, it is the turn of the Conservative Benches. If we get a short question, we shall hear from the Labour benches too.
My Lords, I am grateful. Will my noble friend ensure that any doctor who seeks to practise, whether a refugee doctor or otherwise, is registered to practise in their home country and has not, under any circumstances, been struck off and banned from practising there?
I will certainly confirm in writing if that is the case, because we do not want people who are ineligible to practise. We have had examples of that.
