ASiT and the Surgical Specialty Training Organisations (SSTOs) call for urgent assurances following the decision to abolish NHS England.

Surgical trainees must be protected during this transition, with training structures, national recruitment, and workforce support safeguarded.

No training today, no surgeons tomorrow.

We thank @RCSnews for this clear statement, with safe surgical practice and trainees at its core

SCPs have a well defined scope of practice: performing parts of a lap cholecystectomy with or without supervision has never been acceptable

We are thankful for the reminder to consultant colleagues to use every theatre opportunity to prioritise training the surgeons of tomorrow
