The Government is undertaking a comprehensive programme of analytical work on all scenarios relating to exiting the European Union. The United Kingdom recognises the importance of recognition of qualifications for different sectors in the UK, including medical professionals. That is why we are committed to securing a continued system for the mutual recognition of professional qualifications as part of a bold and ambitious future economic partnership.
