From 'the other site:
>>>Reply from local MP as follows:
"Thanks for your e-mail. I have followed this up and understand that ODPM
is now admitting that the policy has not changed (despite its omission
from the new guidance). However, worryingly, the latest statement from
the Department says only that they are CONSIDERING reinstating the
missing wording. I will, therefore, chase this up to seek an assurance
that it WILL be reinstated.
Thank you for alerting me to this issue.
Best wishes"<<<<
Keep up the pressure
