...4. The answer for those interested: @newsnmc.bsky.social fee in 2012 was £76/yr. This went up to £100/yr in 20213 and £120/yr in 2015. If the fee had gone up inline with inflation since 2012 it would have been £110.25/yr in 2025 (according to the Bank of England inflation calculator) #NMCCouncil.

So here's the comment I made & questions I asked at yesterdays #NMCCouncil. First I expressed my solidarity to @newsnmc.bsky.social employees who are currently fearful about their jobs. I also extended this solidarity to the @unison.org.uk branch as they're the recognised trade union at the NMC.

This afternoon I’m at the extraordinary @newsnmc.bsky.social #NMCCouncil meeting. It has two main agenda items including the request to Council for the NMC to start a consultation on a fee rise for its registrants.

We’re now on questions from observers. Here’s my comment and question. It was frustrating that we didn’t get the commitment from the CEO to pause the pilot. It may well be that the new approach could be beneficial, we are however concerned that we haven’t had the opportunity to discuss. #NMCCouncil

We’re now onto NMC Strategy 2025-2027. Emma Westcott intriduces this, highlighting that this will focus on doing a few things very well rather than have a longer list. Here it is on a page. #NMCCouncil

Paul Johnson takes over to highlight some of data on FtP. There’s lots but this is probably one I find most helpful to keep an eye on. He also talks about a pilot they’ve been doing on health cases, including cases being resolved in 12wk rather than >50wk for those outside of the pilot. #NMCCouncil
