It highlights our key achievements over the last 12 months against this mission, in addition to illustrating our plans to build on these accomplishments during 2018/2019. Our longer term research priorities are also described, demonstrating our commitment to continually horizon scan for new issues, and research new specification or methodologies for us to use in new or improved statistics.
