  "text": "(1) A doctor whose name is included in the medical list shall provide annually to the Board a report, in accordance with this paragraph, relating to the provision by him of personal medical services (in this paragraph called an “annual report”).\n(2) An annual report shall contain—\n(a) the information specified in paragraphs 1 and 2 of Schedule 13;\n(b) where the Board, having considered whether the information is available to it from another source and having consulted the Local Medical Committee, so requests, the information specified in paragraph 3 of Schedule 13; and\n(c) where the Board so requests, in the case of a doctor who is not already supplying that information to the Board in order to qualify for payments in respect of disease management, the information specified in paragraph 4 of Schedule 13.\n(3) Each annual report shall be compiled in respect of the period of 12 months ending on the 31st March of the year in which it is provided and shall be sent to the Board by 30th June of that year.\n(4) In the case of a doctor who practises in partnership with other doctors whose names are included in the medical list, the information referred to in sub-paragraph (2) may alternatively be provided in the form of an annual report in respect of the partnership as a whole instead of by each doctor in the partnership individually and in such a case a doctor may, if he so wishes, also produce his own annual report.\n(5) Where the Board requires that the information referred to in sub-paragraph (2) be provided on a form supplied by the Board, the doctor shall use that form.\n(6) The Board shall not disclose any annual report to any person, unless otherwise lawfully empowered to do so.",
