Summaries
of the best available evidence relevant to specific policy decisions (“policy
briefs”) are being prepared on the following issues. Each policy brief will
identify, appraise and synthesize evidence to describe the problem or policy
issue, options for addressing the problem, barriers to implementing the options
and strategies for addressing those barriers. The policy briefs will be used to
