   Comments: As Public Health Lead for tackling health inequalities for children and young people in a deprived area of North East London, I fullly support any move to reduce unavoidable morbidity and mortality amongst such a vulnerable and already hard to reach population as it is.

    Comments: I see destitute asylum seekers daily at work and know how difficult it already is to access primary health care when you have no address. Charging for access is just denial of access - not only inhumane, but for all the reasons stated above very, disgracefully stupid - no surprises there then.

    Comments: 5 young refugee and asylum seekers form Kurdish community commited suicide in our area since new year because terrible living conditions, uncertainty of their future because of long waiting for HO decisions, fear of death if they sent back to their country, poverty etc. Now new rules of the NHS asking for money!! They can not go to NHS services as they are poorest group of people in UK and their illness will become choronical and more costly...and The goverment thinking of saving what a dilemma.

    Comments: It is imperative that asylum seekers and migrants have free access to primary healthcare as this is a universal right under international law and embodies are recognition of common humanity. It will cause death and worsen health if such people are denied these basic rights and the impact would be felt downstream on emergency health services. As Minister of Health with knowledge of humilation and ostracism coming from a poor background, you should know this would be inhuman and unequal treatment that you would not want to endorse.

    Comments: I work with asylum seekers within Primary Care and can anticipate huge problems for future public health if this legislation goes ahead and denies 'failed' asylum seekers free access to primary care services. I believe denying this care would breach human rights.

    Comments: Health is a human right. To expect health care professionals to deny health care to vulnerable people and report them to the Home Office is neither practical nor ethical. It would also be time consuming, costly, increase public hostility towards migrants generally, and lead to an increasing level of fear among vulnerable migrants. Migration to the UK is inevitable, and part of belonging to a global village. The Government should stop appeasing Express readers and take a moral lead.

    Comments: I strongly disagree to the propose of General Practitioners to refuse treatment to refugees and asylum seekers, since that can have major impact not only in the life and integration of the already vulnerable and traumatised individuals but also on the norms of the whole society. First the refugees are not welcomed, how is gonna be next the erthnic minority the lower classes
