Unfortunately Greg, many of us see Divisions as simply agents of
the government intrusion into our surgeries and into the
de-professionalisation of general practice. This is because the
activities which come out of Divisions appear to be more about
implementation of restrictive government policies than supporting GPs in
their work. In my case the Division could disappear tomorrow and its
passing would have no negative impact on the delivery of services to my
patients.
Divsions claiming to be the largest representative bodies of GPs
really get up my nose as they are an unelected swill with less
representation than the Senate to which Paul Keating referred.
It is unfortunate that the occasional worthy soul such as
yourself is surrounded by a sea of government apparatus.
