In addition, we have increased the number of general practitioner training places to 4,000 per year.</p><p> </p><p>We made £520 million available to improve access and expand general practice capacity during the pandemic. This was in addition to at least £1.5 billion announced in 2020 to create an additional 50 million general practice appointments by 2024 by increasing and diversifying the workforce.</p> more like this
