Rejected petition Nurses should not have to pay NMC costs to practise.

It is unfair that registered nurses should pay the NMC £120 yearly to practise. The NMC remains a widely recognised body that disciplines or investigates nurses regarding their practise. Fees for this service is immoral considering nurses are grossly underpaid for the service they perform already.
