When I took my test on Friday another person had to do the Bay park at the test center before they set off as his maneuver, they're definitely still done.

My progress booklet lists 4 maneouvres:
- reverse round the corner
- parallel parking
- bay park
- turn in the road

So I would say that you should have ample practice for these maneouvres before your practical test. The bay park should be part of any driving lesson anyway, regardless of whether it is actually included in the practical test, as you will be doing a lot of this maneouvre in real life.

P.S. I had my practical test last Friday and I had to do reverse round the corner. However, I didn't have to do an emergency stop, which my instructor correctly predicted an hour before my driving test (the reason being the roads are wet).
