MHRA exceptional authorisation of Innova for asymptomatic individuals was issued on 22nd Dec.
This is a LIMITED approval, and the details of how and why it is LIMITED are important. It does not cover all current uses of INNOVA by

Second, the test manufacturer is stated as “Department of Health and Social Care”, and not Innova.
This determines who has the duty of care and safety.

“ONLY allows for the test to be used to “find” positive cases.
MHRA HAVE NOT approved the test for use in a ‘test to enable’ scenario.”

“as stated on our webpage, people should not act on a negative result and should continue to follow their local guidelines.”
“Any other use of the kit is outside of MHRA’s remit and at the manufacturer’s own risk.”

Given @MHRAgovuk has explicitly stated the test is not approved for this, the Government must now take notice (and not by tortous act/not act logic). Our health is at risk.

More from Government
This article by Jim Spellar for @LabourList misses the point about why Labour needs to think seriously about constitutional reform - and have a programme for it ready for government.
The state of our constitution is a bit like the state of the neglected electric wiring in an old house. If you are moving into the house, sorting it out is a bit tedious. Couldn’t you spend the time and money on a new sound system?
But if you ignore the wiring, you’ll find that you can’t safely install the new sound system. And your house may well catch fire.
Any programme for social democratic government requires a state with capacity, and a state that has clear mechanisms of accountability, for all the big and all the small decisions that in takes, in which people have confidence.
That is not a description of the modern UK state.
