Official Report<\/em>, column 28WS, the Department is planning, subject to examination of relevant issues, the development of a state-backed indemnity scheme for general practice in England.\u200b<\/p> <\/p>
Any new scheme should meet the needs of current and future general practitioners (GPs), be in the interest of patients, and represent value for money for taxpayers. Transfer of historic liabilities from Medical Defence Organisations (MDOs) to a new scheme would be dependent on satisfactory negotiation with the MDOs.<\/p>
<\/p>
The Department will set up a stakeholder group and arrange a first roundtable next month with the Royal College of General Practitioners, the British Medical Association and other GP representatives to gather views from general practice and agree how best to engage with the sector going forward.<\/p>"}

Non-compliance also affects Landlords' ability to rely on Section 21 of the Housing Act 1988.<\/p>
The landlord must protect the deposit in one of the schemes within 30 calendar days from the day the deposit is received and must provide the tenant with details (Prescribed Information) of how their deposit has been protected within the same 30 day period.<\/p>
In many cases, the landlord will enter into a contractual arrangement with a letting agent which allows the agent to carry out these duties on the landlord\u2019s behalf. However, it is the landlord who remains responsible for carrying out these statutory obligations.<\/p>"}

Defra has provided financial and other support for research on a number of candidate diagnostic tests for M. bovis<\/em>, the causative agent of tuberculosis in cattle, and continues to do so.<\/p> <\/p>
Neither the Phage nor PCR tests are currently validated to OIE (World Organisation for Animal Health) level for use in diagnosing TB in bovine species. If and when the manufacturers validate their tests we would consider their official use in TB control.<\/p>
<\/p>
In exceptional circumstances, non-validated tests may be carried out on bovine species under strict criteria with the approval of the Secretary of State. This allows diagnostic companies to undertake the work required to validate the test.<\/p>
<\/p>
The PCR test used in this instance is the same as that previously used to detect M. bovis<\/em> in badger faeces and a comprehensive assessment of the PCR test (Defra study SE3289) indicated that this PCR test was not suitable for use in TB surveillance activities in wildlife. Until the PCR test is validated for use in cattle it is difficult to determine the percentages of truly TB-infected and TB-free animals that are correctly identified by this method.<\/p>"}
