Open Letter: Withdraw The National Health Service (Charges to Overseas Visitors) (Amendment) Regulations 2017

While I'm on the subject of unnecessary, damaging and costly processes in public services, may I draw your attention to -

This open letter to Secretary of State for Health, Jeremy Hunt, which should be widely circulated. So I hope the more than 1,000 signatories do not mind me publishing it in full here.

It was coordinated by

Doctors of the World@DOTW_UK

Asylum Matters, @AsylumMatters

Freedom from Torture, @FreefromTorture 

National AIDS Trust, @NAT_AIDS_Trust

The Immigration Law Practitioners Association, @ILPAimmigration

Amongst others.

Sir David Nicholson, who was the chief executive of NHS England from 2011 to 2014, is among 1,000 signatories.
