Scrap the NMC (Nursing and Midwifery Council) annual registration fee.
It is wrong that nurses should have to pay an annual fee (currently £120) just to be registered to do their job. Please abolish this fee. I

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise.
Whether to charge registration fees is an operational matter for independent bodies including the Nursing and Midwifery Council, and not the Government or Parliament.
We have published a petition calling on the Government to reimburse NHS nurses for professional registration fees, which you might like to sign:
