Description
As a team, we should be alerted to new releases of BNF datasets, so we can import them into Open Codelists. For example, this issue was manually created by Becky to let us know a new dataset was available.
The alert should go somewhere we are likely to see it, so a Slack message or GitHub Issue would be better than an email.
Ideally, the text of the alert should point to the instructions for importing the dataset and to the page on TRUD for downloading the dataset.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing issue 1960 and the existing BNF import instructions, then check the TRUD download page and decide whether the alert should be a Slack message or GitHub Issue. Done means new BNF releases reliably produce a visible alert containing links to both sets of instructions.
