referral

And the think-tank warned progress could suffer if the rate of referrals rises more quickly than expected - something that is quite possible given the ageing population.

For instance, when migrants move between hotels, they sometimes keep the same NHS doctors - especially for GP referrals.

Jess had contact with six different doctors at her GP surgery and three face-to-face consultations with a family doctor, but no referral to a specialist was made.

Her attorney, Abbe Lowell, dismissed the referral as “three pages of stale, threadbare allegations.”

But on each occasion, including after a multi-agency meeting with MI5, the referrals were closed by counter terrorism officers because no "terrorist or domestic extremist ideology" was identified.
