However, due to the large response we have had to the recruitment it is thought that this will not be required.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>HSE was also able to use discussions with stakeholders and prioritisation exercises with Defra, and officials from the Scottish and Welsh governments to inform decisions around the number of experts required within the process on the basis of estimates of the numbers of restrictions and applications for authorisation expected.<\/p>"}
