This note summarises an expert roundtable held in July 2022 covering the growing importance of this issue and both domestic and international implications of increased capacity.

Rapid projects support government departments to understand the scientific evidence underpinning a policy issue or area by convening academic, industry and government experts at a single roundtable. The summary meeting notes seek to provide accessible science advice for policymakers. They represent the combined views of roundtable participants, and are not statements of government policy.
