\nFrom:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u00a0timothymaccaw Opting out is effectively what Uschi Kraus-Harper has done with her response to the ASA (see below) after their fatuous demand for unwarranted website changes because of their current homeophobe attitude.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ***********************************************<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n It is a witch hunt!!!\u00a0 I have changed my\u00a0 website in accordance to advice from Society of Homeopaths. It\u2019s to do with the wording. You are not allowed to mentions\u00a0 homeopathy can help any sort of medical condition. \u00a0For example my website now states that \u00a0:-<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \n \n Registered with the Society of Homeopaths<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n ****************************************************<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

that is their problem.\u00a0<\/p>\nTim<\/p>\n—-<\/p>\nMy last email from 5th July 2011<\/p>\nDear Ms McFinn<\/p>\nPlease note that I have clearly stated that I shall be happy to cooperate and to sign a pro forma letter if it contains complaints that are reasonable, i.e. that have been made because I have statements on my website that are in breach of codes of honesty, truthfullness, decency and legality. As it stands, the complaints all have to do with the debate about the efficacy of homeopathy.<\/p>\n I repeat that as practitioners of an established form of medicine, according to your own ruling, homeopaths do not need to provide proof of efficacy for their form of medicine. You are using the report of the Commons Science and Technology Committee as a legal reference when it is no such thing. It seems to me that you are breaching your own rules and overstepping your remit. You are trying to threaten me with your sentence "…inform them of the action we intend to take". The word harrassment comes to mind and I shall consider taking legal steps if this does not stop.<\/p>\n Ursula Kraus-Harper MA PhD RSHom
