Dear all, as we are all bored and waiting for the announcement (if it ever comes) I was wondering if you would take five minutes to sign this e petition on behalf of myself and my fellow nursing colleagues. Our regulatory body the NMC, are trying to increase our registration fees by 58%. In the grand scheme of things the increase is only to £120 but on these times of austerity and not much money for anything the principle of such a huge in increase sticks in our throats. It will mean that the NMC will have an income of £81 million a year and they are a registered charity! Anyway, would be grateful if you could sign on the following link http://epetitions.direct.gov.uk/petitions/34101 Sorry for the rant!
