Wes Streeting corrected the Commons record on Junior Doctors’ Foundation Programme

27 April 2026 · Commons Hansard, Written Corrections · Health and Social Care

Wes Streeting made the correction and printed in Hansard's Written Corrections on 27 April 2026. The figure £40 million in the original became £21.25 million in the correction. Altogether 12 words differ between the two versions.

The question

The Minister talked about less-than-full-time training, which has obviously had an impact on the number of doctors we need. The Secretary of State said before the general election that if Labour was elected, it would double the number of medical school places. Is that still the Government’s intention?
