Around 85% of participating clinics have confirmed they have the capacity to accept additional trial places, and those places have been released. Local authorities have now been asked to confirm whether clinic service providers can accept the remaining places allocated to them. Places remaining un-allocated may then be re-allocated to clinics currently closed for recruitment.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bury St Edmunds answering member printed Jo Churchill question first answered 04/10/2019 12:02:22 answering member 4380 label Biography information for Jo Churchill
