I echo your sentiments exactly.

Occupational Health Nurse Advisor
I
know we have discussed this on Jisc numerous times but I am really incensed by
this! I qualified way back in 1977 and paid what was supposedly a one-off fee (I
think it was £68) to remain on the register for the rest of my professional
career. The thought of continually paying to enable me to use my hard-earned
skills is galling to say the least!
Anyway,
back to the work in hand!

That is
correct the NMC is set up by Westminster Parliament to protect the public
and does not protect us-so why do we pay
Police/firemen/drs
do not pay directly to fund government decisions.So why
us?

I had a
conversation recently with someone who stated that I should be mindful of the
fact that the NMC`s primary concern is to protect the interests of the
public, and therefore not primarily the interests of nurses. I`m not sure
whether this view is right, but if you do take that as a starting point then it
does become clearer why they are hiking the cost of registration. Not that
I agree with it by the way, just saying....

Re: [OCC-HEALTH] NMC to consult on fee increase
We are
putting this on our website. I'm appalled that those of us who practice within
our NMC code, are being penalised for those who do not, surely the fitness to
practice costs should come out of a government pot??

Consultation
on NMC fee rise
Last week we announced that our Council
proposed to consult on increasing the registration fee
to £120.
The current registration fee of £76,
in place since 2007, is no longer sufficient to meet
the increasing costs of regulation. This includes
managing the 48% increase in the number of fitness to
practise referrals against nurses and midwives since
2010.
Please encourage staff to have their say,
and to take part in the consultation when it is
launched.

Knowing
when to escalate
Employers
and managers have a responsibility for providing
a clear policy to their staff to raise concerns.
Our guidance on raising and escalating
concerns is for all nurses and midwives, and it
should complement local whistleblowing policies
and safeguarding procedures.
Guidance on
raising and escalating
concerns.

Referring
to the NMC
We
have updated our referral flow chart to help
employers and managers decide if a referral to
the NMC is necessary.
Understanding the
process helps enable employers, managers and
senior nursing or midwifery staff, to make the
informed decisions needed if they want to refer
someone to us.
This useful diagram is
located in the Making a referral section on our
website.

Digital
NMC
We
want to remind employers and managers the NMC is
switching our core publications from print to
digital copies next month.
Our
information will continue to be available on our
website.
