The working party was appointed as a committee of experts in October 1992 to review cervical screening with the following terms of reference: to review the implementation of the recommendations of the interim report of the Working Party on Cervical Screening 1988; to review the general efficacy and cost effectiveness of the operation of the present systems and to consider what further cost effective improvements can be made.
