So at the moment, it's a no-go on the new build that the practice the ICB and the local authority have all agreed needs to be developed for the increasing.

She did.

So she actually thinks that most MPs would have similar stories.

She highlighted that one of her MP colleagues in another area also has been faced with a new housing development.

Now, as part of the planning application, the council said the developer could build houses

As long as a new GP surgery was funded.

Now, the houses have been built, but the field for the surgery currently sits empty.

And it's because they can't find a developer to build the surgery because the district valuer says that the amount of rent the ICB is allowed to reimburse the GP practice is significantly less than what the developer feels is market rate.

I spoke with uh one of the RCGP GP registrar co-chairs and she told me that from what she's heard, the job situation for GPs about CCT is pretty similar to the survey results the college released last year.

So basically, people are finding work, but it's not enough.

Essentially, there is a lot of underemployment.

Yeah, I mean it's definitely a a new issue that I've come across.

So we know that due to a lack of funding, a lot of practices can't offer full-time work like they once used to.

So the college told me that many registrars that are about to qualify and have been offered work, either short-term or part-time, have also been added to practice waiting lists to pick up more sessions.

when they become available.

The college said that this is actually happening frequently.

They did, but only a little bit better.

You know, it's a varied picture for sure.

So GP trainers from Manchester, Leeds, and Liverpool told me that there are now more jobs available in their areas this year in comparison to the same time last year.

However, in Manchester and Liverpool, the jobs aren't necessarily full-time work.
