The government has insisted that is not preventing international doctors from working for the NHS, amid new immigration rules that will ban non-EU medical students training in the UK. The revised immigration rules are part of the government's new points-based system that will prohibit medical graduates from outside the EU taking a training position, reports Personneltoday. Last year saw around 28,000 applicants for some 15,000 training positions in the UK, with even more competition predicted for 2008, the report continues. Health secretary Alan Johnson stated that the UK is moving toward a "policy of self-sufficiency" which will ensure UK graduates are able to access training positions, but maintained that the government is not banning international doctors working in the country. He said: "I cannot stress enough that we are not closing the door to international doctors working in the NHS. These new rules only apply to training places in the UK."
