Our current policy is to add them on request (we currently have 2
listed [1]), however we would consider adding them in bulk if there
were definitive lists or databases of contact email addresses to match
against.  We have to balance the fairly low level of demand for making
FOI requests to GPs versus the volunteer admin overhead of keeping the
list of GPs and their addresses up-to-date.

We would also need our bulk import tool to be improved, especially as
we'd want to tag them with their externally recognised NHS codes for
easier ongoing reconciliation.
