with allowing more protected time for training to encourage more London principals to become trainers; providing more political solutions for primary care in London; and improving the marketing of general practice to medical students and junior doctors in London.Thirdly, recommendations from the course organisers included increasing the general practice component of training to 18 months; encouraging more flexibility in part-time training; making it possible for all registrars to undertake a component of their general practice time in an urban practice; and creating more academic and research posts in London to encourage registrars not currently wanting to become principals to continue working in the inner city.Government funding for educational flexibility in the London initiative zone over the next two years will enable some of these issues to be addressed.In addition, data on numbers of general practice registrars need to be collected and collated in a more uniform way; this should be partially addressed by the new reporting mechanism, but this will need to be moni- tored.Finally, any recommendations for vocational training cannot be viewed in isolation from the wider demands of general practice in inner London, in par- ticular immediate improvements in safety for doctors in high risk areas and long term measures to tackle inner city social deprivation.We thank the four Thames regional advisers in general practice-Drs Homung, Josse, Ruben, and Styles-and all the respondents to our questionnaires.
