Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, if he will take steps to address the need of Enfield Clinical Commissioning Group for 50 per cent more GPs over the next five years projected by the Royal College of General Practitioners.
This is a matter for the local National Health Service.
We are advised that the local NHS estimates that the number of additional general practitioners required to meet patient need in Enfield is generally in line with projections for North Central London, London and England overall.
