Notes

Gathering uncertainties:

  • some respondents belonged to multiple categories
  • the 'Total number of original uncertainties submitted' numbers refer to individual statements identified in the 185 submissions. Statements/uncertainties were grouped into indicative questions due to overlap being common

Interimprioritisation: 30 items were presented in the interim survey, however one item was presented twice in error meaning 29 individual questions were included.
