At the November 2020 conference of LMCs (local medical committees) in England, a resolution was passed which called for a ballot of the profession to secure a firm mandate for GPC England before agreeing any changes or extension to the contract.
Voting has now closed, and the results are as follows:
'Prior to any further negotiations, extension or changes for 2021/22, do you give GPC England a mandate for the PCN directed enhanced service?'
Yes: 80%
No: 20%
Total valid votes: 4,534
GPC England will now proceed with negotiations on the PCN DES for 2021/22.
