The word "referral," as identified...
You need to put quotes around the word so that we know you're talking about the word as a word rather than as its meaning. I'm not sure if you're supposed to use double quotes (") or single quotes (') in the UK to do this. I can ask my UK language expert next week...
Also, italicize Oxford English Dictionary (and write out its whole name, just like that).
Finally, your paragraph stops making sense after "GP." I think possibly that you quoted and tried to take multiple definitions out of the OED. Make sure your quotes from the OED are *exact* (ie, if the OED says "general practitioner," do NOT abbreviate it) and that it's clear where one quote from the OED ends and another begins (you can either put quotes around definition 1 and definition 2 separately, with an "and" in between them, or you can put quotes around the whole of both definitions and put three periods between the two definitions. That's called an Ellipsis).
