Okay. Moving to the HPRA contribution, I notice it said: "The review concluded that from a policy perspective should the Minister consider it in societal interest ...". Is that the normal use of language the authority would associate with this? I mean as opposed to referring to the medical interest of society. It may not be significant, but it just stood out to me. It could equally say should the Minister consider it in the health interests of society but the authority said "societal interest".
