During this slow news period anyone help with this-
A 'hot news' blog window is stuck on this chat page, it appears to have arrived from the news/events tab above. It is not fully loaded so I'm unable to remove it.
cheers
Sufficient funds have to be in my ISA account in readiness for an unknown share award thurs, ok with this as I can withdraw any unused cash. Regards my wifes SIPP account this is not quite as straight forward, any unused cash withdrawn will be subject to tax, that right?

Response from my question 6 week ago to my local MP
Thank you for contacting me about Innova and lateral flow devices.
In December last year, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) provided the DHSC with an Exceptional Use Authorisation (EUA) which permits NHS Test and Trace to deploy the repurposed Innova COVID-19 as a self-test device as a test to detect infection in asymptomatic individuals.
In light of the US Food and Drug Administration’s warning about LFDs, it is right that a full risk assessment was undertaken by DHSC, as legal manufacturer of the devices in the UK, and that the MHRA undertook a thorough review to ensure that they were satisfied with the assessment and any action proposed. Following what the MHRA has described as a satisfactory outcome of the review, Exceptional Use Authorisation was extended to 28th August 2021.
I have been assured by my colleagues in the Department for Health and Social Care that the tests have been through the rigorous Porton Down assessment process and robust quality assurance processes are in place. While I note your comments about these tests, I am satisfied that they have met the necessary standard and share the Government’s confidence in these tests.
These tests have helped to save thousands of lives by identifying asymptomatic cases of COVID-19. Around 1 in 3 people who have coronavirus never show any symptoms but may still be infectious. This means they could be spreading the virus without realising it and so asymptomatic testing is a vital tool as we work towards ending this pandemic.
I understand that the Government is planning to diversify the supply of lateral flow devices (LFDs) and has begun to deploy other products in some settings, including the Orient Gene device. This will be expanded over the coming months and I will be following developments closely.
"So we are now into the realms of vaccine facism - no jab, no job."
Agree AgentB but how many people out there ( vaxed or not) have their covid app switched on? or imagine all those folk in the gig economy "negative test or no pay" I suspect many would just keep shtumm rather than loose 10 days pay. Airlines and the like to a large degree can police the testing. It's difficult enough to avoid the 'righteous' maskless wukfits let alone thousands of people making the difficult choice between being a good citizen and paying the rent.
Answer...haven't a clue!
whilst avacta totaly exonorated and our product still hopefully 'best in class' surely progress with MHRA should have been periodiically chased up and the error identified and corrected much quicker. Anyhow good to have confirmation more lucrative eu routes being progressed
@Bella, appreciate your research and views, be they right or wrong at least they are well thought out and worth reading. otherwise absolute junk this weekend mainly from the chief narcissist Ndn. A dose of ad hominem for you - your a creepy twat!
As it is only confirmation of what we already know, once it arrives cannot see a huge increase in sp unless orders are included. So the wait could be a week or two, longer if the new 'dominant' variant has to be assesed and qualified.
Come on Avacta, there's lots of bargains to be had on Rightmove Spain
