RE: Reply from my PM22 Jan 2022 17:25
I previously posted on here the response my MP received for me from Maggie Throupe minister for vaccinations etc. For a reason that was not clear to me my post on here was met with abuse.
Anyhow, when I saw the FOI response posted elsewhere on this BB, I decided to reply to my MP. She in turn has seen fit to reply to Maggie and copied me in.

Dear Maggie,
You previously responded to an enquiry from my constituent, Mr Derek Xxxxxxx, regarding approval of lateral flow tests. I am writing to you again to ask about some matters that arise from these enquiries.
You will see below that Mr Xxxxx has been informed that there are five full time equivalent scientific advisors reviewing applications for approval under the Medical Devices (Coronavirus Test Device Approvals) (Amendment) Regulations 2021 (CTDA).
Do you believe that this is an appropriate level of resourcing of what seems to me to be a very important task, given the situation we face?
Further, no companies applying have been approved yet. What do you believe the cause of this is? What is the process for improvement to make it more likely tests will be approved in the future?
I would be grateful if you could respond to these further questions.
Thanks and best wishes,
Alison
