UKCore-MedicationAdministrationCategory was added after specific review and feedback from the Digital and Interoperable Medicines Programme. It was not added under a Clinical & Technical Assurance sprint.

UKCore-UnifiedTestList added in C&TA Sprint 6 was replaced by the UKCore-PathologyAndLaboratoryMedicineObservables and UKCore-PathologyAndLaboratoryMedicineProcedures ValueSets during the STU2 Ballot reconciliation due to a change by the SNOMED CT UK Clinical Edition.
