My understanding is the matter remains under consideration by the HSE and the report from the NCPE has helped in the decision-making process and helping to inform further engagement between the HSE and the supplier on the pricing of the product. It is down to price and effectiveness, as people recognise the benefits. My reading is that this is ongoing so the issue is up for discussion. I will get clarification from the HSE.
