Dear Mr Oakley,



Thank you for your email dated 15 August to the Department of Health about GP referrals. I have been asked to reply.



Unfortunately, since your email does not name either the condition or the specific National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence ( NICE ) guidelines, the Department cannot properly reply to your query at this time.



Please forward to us more specific details of the condition, the relevant guidelines, and any incidents or events that have prompted your query, and we will respond accordingly.



I am sorry I cannot be more helpful.



Yours sincerely,



Martin Gatty
