Foreign doctors face GMC's English language tests

[annie]

This should have been mandatory in the first place!!

New powers allowing the medical regulator to check doctors' English language skills have come into force.

Previously only doctors from outside Europe could have their language skills tested by the General Medical Council (GMC), but this has now been extended to European doctors coming to Britain.

The GMC hailed the change in law as an "important milestone".

Ministers said "for the first time ever" there was now a "full system of checks" of doctors' language skills.
