We have mentioned GPs and ultrasound machines. We have a GP present. GPs deal with a lot of patients in the early stages of pregnancy and are often the ones who first diagnose a pregnancy. Many of them now have ultrasound machines. Has the Medical Council told GPs, as their regulatory body, that if they have not completed the proper course, they are in breach of ethics? What is the position in that regard?
