Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Recruitment, Retention and Manpower Planning Issues: Irish College of General Practitioners
Mr. Fintan Foy:
We just have to get the numbers correct here. We took 258 into training this year. They will do the four-year training programme and ideally those 258 will stay or will go into general practice, but that is probably not practical. We estimate that in 2023 some 200 trainees will have completed their training. In addition we have the non-EU programme, and hopefully within one year we would have another 100. There would be approximately 300 coming out of the system in 2023.
