The working group on vaginal tapes and mesh, chaired by NHS England and including patient representatives, clinical representatives, the Department and the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency, has been set up to understand and address the concerns which have been raised about transvaginal mesh implants. The working group is aiming to make recommendations in spring next year.
