Nursing & Midwifery Council
Briefing for MPs on registration fees, February 2004
The NMC discovered a large and growing financial defecit. During our first year of operation, the Council conducted a thorough review of its finances and implemented a number of cost savings, including bringing IT and the call centre in-house. However, despite these significant measures, it is necessary to increase the three-yearly registration fee from the current £60.

Without effective registration, they are unable to practise in the United Kingdom. This briefing from the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) sets out the factors that led to problems with the registration processes in recent months, and the solutions to those problems that the NMC has put in place.
