The Department is undertaking a comprehensive review of stock to determine the efficacy of equipment before it is distributed. This review is ongoing and will consider new stock as it continues to arrive, therefore we are unable to provide a completion date. However, as of 6 December, we had assessed approximately 87% of current stock.
