RESUMEN
In summing up, Professor Catto referred to the impossibility of achieving the correct balance in a constantly changing position. Only minor alterations to the curriculum are required, such as improving the ability to prescribe and proper shadow periods. The way PRHO posts are constructed needs changing more than the curriculum. Professor Rawlins summation was brief and to the point: the problem lies in the gap between what the GMC and everybody else would like the job to be and what it actually is: in other words, a reality check is needed. There was no clear winner in this debate. At the start of the debate 18 were against the motion, seven for, with the majority undecided. At the end, 23 were against and 17 for the motion, with only a small proportion still undecided.
