16 ROUNDTABLE 1 1. Have we missed anything?  The long list. 2. Are we including too many interventions?

17 ROUNDTABLE 2 1. Have we captured the right objectives for the study?  Objectives and achievements 2. Are we assessing them properly? 3. Does the scoring system work when you have a package?

18 STAKEHOLDER HOMEWORK  By the end of May the Project team will  Packaging and scoring  Provide a finalised long list  Provide a packaging and scoring sheet  By the end of June the Stakeholders are asked to  Fill in 0-10 against objectives  Generate your own package(s) to identify interventions you feel have a role  Score your package(s) against the objectives

19 SUMMARY OF ROUNDTABLE 2  Are the objectives understood and do any need rewording?  Questions the facilitators need to  Have we missed any objectives? Why are answer. they important for the M25SWQ study?  Is the 0-10 range appropriate for objectives?  Can the package be scored using the 7 point scale?
