These notes do not contain all the information that is available, just a brief description of what has been published and where it can be found. In keeping with the “go here to find more” ethos, each of the notes in an issue has four parts:

  • Heading – the title used on the ABLE website.
  • ABLE Web ref – where to go on the ABLE website.
  • Also see – related information or resources.
  • Explanation - a brief summary.

Local Practice Notes are filed by date of publication with a summary of what is in that issue.
