Lincs LMC attended the UK conference in London. Two days of rich debate about many of the large issues that affect general practice across the UK. Motions are debated and then voted on. Those passed become GPC UK Policy.

This conference does not discuss things such as PCNs or GMS contract imposition as these are not issues that affect all UK nations.

Sometimes seemingly sensible and important motions can fail due to single words or missed detail that would render the motion unactionable for GPC to undertake.
