We welcome the Committee’s palliative care inquiry and report. It is disappointing that no recommendations address general practice or district nursing. GPs are central to end-of-life care, and improving services demands appropriate funding for general practice

Yesterday's budget not so good news for GP practices. GP practices are small businesses, which will be affected by min wage increase, but no flexibility to cut costs elsewhere, or go over budget. Concerning for our already struggling GP practices. #GeneralPractice #Budget2025

Very encouraging to see the evidence #MinimumUnitPricing for alcohol saves lives and reduces health inequalities. Time for NI to follow and introduce its own MUP legislation urgently. @healthdpt @sinnfeinireland @duponline @uuponline @allianceparty @SDLPlive
RCGP Scotland (@RCGPScotland) profile pictureRCGP Scotland@RCGPScotland19 Nov 2025
Since minimum unit pricing began an estimated 156 alcohol related deaths have been prevented every year, and health inequalities have reduced as the greatest improvements were seen in deprived areas. Learn more by listening to Conversations About Alcohol open.spotify.com/episode/1C9…
