Well said Chris Moy! As stated by our President Jasmine Davis, “It would be profoundly irresponsible for a Government to fund such a large number of new medical school places without adequate data, robust modelling, and consultation of stakeholders.”
Question for Universities: How is this any part of National Medical Workforce Plan & who & how are we going to train 1000 new graduates? Fantasy thinking to justify University self interest. Need to be part of the solution- not part of the problem.
