Any news on progress with the BMA evaluation of Cass Review?

From their press release dated 31 July. My emphasis. The year mentioned was 2024.

'The BMA is calling for a pause to the implementation of the Cass Review’s recommendations whilst the task and finish group carries out its work. It is expected to be completed towards the end of this year.'

The most recent info I could find was here, where it is said that the task and finish group will report this month:

Note that under pressure the BMA did retreat to deciding to be neutral on Cass in the meantime.

Any respect I did have for the BMA evaporated months ago. It’s a union which is manifestly failing to represent its members, and demonstrating some pretty unprofessional and unethical behaviour for…you know….doctors 🙄😡

Well it's not just that they have not come up with something yet (or perhaps have completed but daren't publish?) They asked that Cass-informed changes should wait until the great BMA has spoken. I am interested in what they have to say. (HINT: The more time passes the less they will find. More evidence does not help them).

Gone rather quiet? Like Khelif 'sueing' JKR?
