Updated response to Tooke recommendations
Updated response from MMC to
recommendations in the Tooke report
Published 14 November 2008
Professor Sir John Tooke led an inquiry into
Modernising Medical Careers (MMC) that culminated in a final
report, Aspiring to Excellence, published in January 2008.
The Secretary of State for Health gave his formal response to that
report the following month.
Subsequent to those publications, the
Parliamentary Health Select Committee (HSC) published the findings
of their own inquiry into MMC in May. One of the HSC
recommendations was that the Department of Health should publish an
updated response to the 47 recommendations in Sir John’s original
report.
The Department agreed to that HSC
recommendation and our updated response is published here.
Implementing the Tooke Report:
