(asked on 31st October 2016) - View Source
Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, whether he has considered introducing refundable charges for GP visits.

One of the key principles of National Health Service care is that it should be free at the point of delivery. Introducing charges is not being considered, as it would undermine this central principle.
