AGM Faculty Motions

Motions Proposed by the Faculties

Corrigan Faculty

"That the Corrigan faculty would like all fees of the ICGP to be reviewed downward in the context of the current economic crisis facing the Medical Profession in Ireland."

East Cork

"That the ICGP develop an accountable method for the recognition and evaluation of prior learning for members and potential members."

Kilkenny Faculty

"That the ICGP requests that the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government (DOEHLG) and local authorities to audit and enforce standards of design construction and management of cycle paths on our roads so as to ensure best practice and to encourage greater utilisation, and improved safety for cyclists of all ages."

Limerick Faculty

  1. "Awarding of points for CME meetings: the collegiality of meetings is ignored in favour of educational didactic content - one point should be awarded for each function for meetings."
  2. "Will ICGP now reduce their membership fees in light of reduction in GP incomes?"

Merrion Faculty

"The Merrion Faculty asks the ICGP to resist the transfer of patients requiring anticoagulation monitoring from secondary to primary care without adequate agreement, backup and resources as this puts patients and doctors at risk."

Wexford Faculty

"The Wexford Faculty proposes that the ICGP seeks to advance the concept of 'Phase 2 Training' by examining alternative methods of funding, and that the prior appropriate hospital training would be recognised."
