The independent mental capacity advocates (IMCA), who will support serious decision making for “unbefriended” incapacitated adults, and some directly related elements of the legislation to support them, will be introduced in England in April 2007, as will the Act’s code of practice.

The first is the proposal to merge the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) with the Human Tissue Authority (HTA) to form a single regulatory body, the Regulatory Authority for Tissue and Embryos (RATE) covering the whole of reproductive technology, pathology, anatomy, transplantation and the use and storage of tissue. This proposal was first announced in July … | ||
