I will go back to the point made by Senator Colm Burke because I want to make sure I understand it. The graph shows a 20% increase in doctors registered but there is a reduced number of new entrants. Does this mean people who qualify are leaving without ever going on the register? Is that the point? What is the mix? Where are they coming from? If they do not come from new entrants are they just people landing in from somewhere else?
