The Society, a health service or an employee, agent or voluntary worker of the Society or a health service. |
The Society or health service— (a) before taking the blood from a donor obtained a statement from the donor which is in the approved form and published in the Government Gazette; and (b) before supplying the blood or a blood product— (i) caused a sample; or (ii) in the case of a blood product, caused a sample of each unit of blood from which the product was derived— to be tested in a manner which is approved by the Secretary and published in the Government Gazette for the presence of a prescribed disease; and (c) obtained a negative result from that test or each of those
tests. |
After the Society or health service supplied blood, the Society or health service had reasonable grounds for believing that the blood was likely to contain a prescribed disease and did not take all reasonable steps— (a) to find out whether the blood, or a blood product derived from that blood, had been given to a person; and (b) to ensure that any remaining part of the blood, or a blood product derived from that blood, is not given to any person. |

If, at any time up to and including the time at which the blood or blood product was administered or used, the health service or other body at whose premises the blood or blood product was administered or used— (a) had been informed that the blood or blood product was likely to contain a prescribed disease; and (b) did not take reasonable steps to ensure that the blood or blood product was not administered to, or used by, any person. |
