The Coalition’s election promise to boost funding for GP training and placements in rural areas is very welcome but the focus must be on real structural reform and ensuring that GP registrars are offered quality, safe training places. @Mark_Butler_MP @Barnaby_Joyce @gedkearney

Only major funding and structural reform will reverse Australia's GP workforce shortage. GP registrars in training must be supported with fairer pay and employment conditions. We ask the next government to prioritise employment reform for GPs.

Look forward to seeing more detail about the ALP’s proposed 50 new urgent GP care clinics across Australia. Only a properly funded Medicare scheme and better employment conditions will attract more junior doctors to train as GPs and solve our GP shortage.

Labor will strengthen Medicare with 50 new Urgent Care Clinics, and we’ll support nurses with a new National Nurse and Midwife Health Service. Taking care of those who take care of us. That’s what Labor does.

GPRA fears that for many young doctors in training a lack of paid parental leave is a major disincentive for choosing a career as a general practitioner.
