    GPC member and Wessex LMCs chief executive Dr Nigel Watson says: 'No one's against continuing professional development but it has to be realistic.Multi-source feedback is the part I have most concerns about.'

    He says that with two feedback exercises in each five-year period for every GP, in which 20 people take part, 'that's a huge number of people filling in forms on each other and you have to question how valid or in-depth it can remain'.

    Dr Watson adds that it remains to be seen how variations in assessment can be avoided. 'It has to be consistent.'

    GPs will need a huge programme of training to make sure they are aware of how to take part efficiently in the revalidation process, Dr Watson says.
