Queueing just to register for AGP, such other pressures on the NHS. The

dockers union says urgent action is needed with an ageing population --

a GP. Most practices can recruit new doctors. A consultant level, we have

one in 15 vacancies, that is the official figures. We think they're

service cannot keep pace with demand. The Health Secretary accepts

changes needed. the criticism follows Audit Scotland that the NHS

met only one of its eight waiting time targets and faces further

savings. The Scottish blueprint for the NHS emphasises intervention to

savings. The Scottish blueprint for stop people becoming ill and

treatment to prevent conditions worsening but doctors argued the gap

temperatures are eight or nine Celsius looking ahead and little in

the way of change, we still have high pressure to the south of us but
