This proposal for a second phase of readiness support builds on the significant gains made in the first phase, particularly in the completion of the CP. As set out in the CP’s implementation and sustainability plan (section 3), the full implementation of the CP requires primary and sustained oversight by the NDA. NDA oversight is multifaceted and is ever more critical.
