Post Shipman, I tried to get out of signing this part of the form and
amongst others took this up with the LMC. I had no support and it was
implied to me that I would be rocking the boat for not doing it.
Additionally Adrian, when you are in the situation where you want
someone to complete a form for you, how do yoiu manage if you will not
reciprocate? I am amazed that the issues with Crem forms have not yet
been sorted out so long after Shipman. I assume that the general
public are mainly unaware that LITTLE has changed.
