In addition to Liam's list, I also think you should add APLS (£600,
3 days). Our current study leave budget is nominally £800 per year.
This is woefully inadequate and yet again I am now spent up until
April (Leeds laparoscopy course is £650 alone), meaning I will have
to fund the Oncology study day out if my own pocket.

A minimum of £1000 study leave and ideally £1200 would a resonable.
