Small point of order chaps ,Circumcision is NOT routinely free on the NHS unless for a medical condition
Quote:
The majority of PCT's do not fund routine circumcision or circumcision that is carried out for religious reasons.
The NHS mainly funds circumcision that is used to treat a small number of medical conditions (see below). In such cases, circumcision is usually regarded as a "treatment of last resort", when all other treatment options have failed.

It is important to note however that some PCTs in England do currently fund religious or ritual circumcision on the NHS. Each PCT takes decisions based on priorities that relate to its own local population.

circumcision for religious purposes is wrong ,it is unnecessary, barbaric and has no place in a modern society .Parents who insist on having it done should save up a bit more and get it done at private hospitals or not at all
