Dear Steve

 

Your Information Request - F15/7056/SH

 

Thank you for your email below of 6 May 2015 asking for information about
voluntary undertakings.

 

I apologise for a delay but I now have considered your request under the
Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA).

 

You asked for the number of requests made to the GMC for voluntary
undertakings.

 

I want to clarify that the GMC offers doctors undertakings, rather than
doctors requesting them from us. Following tables provides a yearly
breakdown of offers made to the number of doctors for undertakings. Not
all of these offers will have been accepted:

 

+-----------------------------------------+
|Undertakings Offer date |# Doctors |
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2006| 44|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2007| 41|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2008| 110|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2009| 96|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2010| 103|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2011| 147|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2012| 143|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2013| 170|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2014| 143|
|---------------------------+-------------|
| 2015| 60|
+-----------------------------------------+

 

I hope this information will help.

 

Kind regards
