Thanks, Paula. I love the smell of a fresh study design.

- It's good to see that "ease of use" has been removed from "efficiency" criteria in the glossary . That irked me for 5 years.
- Also pleasing to see that the ambiguity of the use of "accessibility" in the consultation draft has been resolved.
- Interesting see a new law added to the glossary's law list - 'Privacy and data protection act 2014'.
- It's good to see the PSM accept Agile.
- Not so pleasing to see that Evaluation Criteria are still included under the Design stage rather than Analysis. Grrr.
- Many refreshing and clarifying amendments to expression and punctuation.

Thank you!

Regards
Mark
