Professors Adrian Agius of Malta and John Fenton of Ireland have brought a petition on patient safety to the European Union.
“Are European patients fully informed and protected when they consult a specialist in ORL?,” they ask, “And will specialists practicing outside their area of competence be legally liable for their surgical outcomes?”
These questions are raised by European training requirements within the context of freedom of movement within EU law.
Both professors have long been concerned about these issues and their work has culminated in a current petition on patient safety. All European citizens are entitled to vote and have their say on this important issue. Please see the link below, which guides you to register before voting.
