Judicial Review Finally Over!

Well, the news was just released a little after 4pm today (see BBC article here). The judicial review has found in favour of the Department of Health (DoH). This means that the current plans on the MMC website will go through - see here. The basic outline of these plans?

1. Posts will be offered by UoAs to the highest ranked candidates irrespective of the candidate’s order of preference. You may receive more than one offer through this revised process.

2. The deadline for acceptance is 23:59 on 10th June.

3. Additional offers will be made from 11th June to 20nd June, with 48 hours to accept or decline and offer, so the final final deadline is 22nd June.

4. If you accept a FTSTA post, but subsequently get offered a ST programme post, you may decline the first even if already accepted and take up the latter offer. This does not apply between FTSTA-FTSTA or ST-ST.

5. Round 2 is planned to start in June, and last until November. It will only be open to those who applied in Round 1.

6. Further information about Round 2 and support plans for those who are unsuccessful in Round 1 are to be released shortly.

Everyone on their marks? Let's brace ourselves for the First Great ST Post Rush.....
