As if we needed it, this is yet another reason not to use it.
If it's on a "case by case" basis, who decides, and on what criteria? Does someone in the NHS pass on the details if someone is called Moriarty or Goldfinger or somesuch?
Jannie - it is, although we aren't using it simply because we don't want to become entangled in bureaucratic incompetence.
Sam - it certainly sounds like a good reason to avoid NHS staff who might be easily offended.
