Dear
Thank you for your email.
The definition of a vaccine is met by a medicinal product through the assessment of the data submitted by an applicant during the licensing process. The assessment for each of the authorised vaccines is available through the Public Assessment Reports published by MHRA and the European Medicine Agency.
If you have a query about the information provided, please reply to this email.
If you disagree with how we have interpreted the Freedom of Information Act 2000 in answering your request, you can ask for an internal review. Please reply to this email, within two months of this reply, specifying that you would like an Internal Review to be carried out.
Please remember to quote the reference number above in any future communications.
If you were to remain dissatisfied with the outcome of the internal review, you would have the right to apply directly to the Information Commissioner for a decision. Please bear in mind that the Information Commissioner will not normally review our handling of your request unless you have first contacted us to conduct an internal review. The Information Commissioner can be contacted at:
