Foreign doctors must be able to speak English

Quote:
Foreign doctors wanting to treat NHS patients in England will have to prove they have the necessary English skills, the government has confirmed...

... From April, there will be a national list of GPs to prevent doctors being rejected in one part of the country and then cropping up somewhere else. GPs will have to prove their language skills before being put on the list.
Sounds like common sense to me so you have wonder why it's taken so long to tackle this problem.
