END OF MEETING

*Due to the general election, and the associated period of ‘purdah’, agenda items relating to Government policy were discussed in a closed afternoon session.

**Please note that Paper 87/7 and annexes 2 and 3 of Paper 87/4 have not been circulated outside the committee as these documents contain new scientific data that have not yet been published in a scientific or medical journal. As premature release of unpublished data may prejudice publication the annexes are not released prior to publication. This is in accordance with SEAC's code of practice.
