Dear Colleagues,
Please be aware that he is going to play his old tune of "Private Medical Institutions Act"once again.
Next week you might see the notices in the news papers asking us to get our private practices registered in his act.Our concern is on the part time private practices which he is trying to poke his fingers in to.
Do you know why he is that interested on our PPs inspite of problems he is already having at the state health sector!
Because via this act he gets the legal support to control medical professionals.
Never ever register your PPs in this council!!
Rally around your GMOA branch unions!!!!!
