Hello Alan and Helen

Selvy posted on the forum topic L34 Code from 2010/11 in the group Independent Specialist Providers (ISPs) Group: 2 months, 2 weeks ago
Hello Claire
I just spoke to one of my ILR spec colleagues and 96999999 codes cannot be used for 2011/12 as they were unassigned and have been removed.
Although it should not have been used in 2010/11 it was not validated and so it may have gone through without difficulty.
Kind regards
