HC Deb 21 January 1997 vol 288 c581W
13. Dr. Wright

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will make a statement on the right of general practitioners to remove patients from their list. [10368]

Mr. Malone

General practitioners' terms of service provide that a doctor may have a person removed from their list. Health authorities have powers to assign patients to a GP if they have difficulty in registering.
