These applications are subject to peer review and judged in open competition, with awards being made on the basis of the importance of the topic to patients and health and care services, value for money and scientific quality.

When recommending vaccines, they are required to show that cost-effectiveness criteria are met. This helps to keep vaccine prices down.</p> answering member printed Lord O'Shaughnessy question first answered 29/11/2018 17:04:03 answering member 4545 label Biography information for Lord O'Shaughnessy
