Annual Reports
The HTA publishes an Annual Report every year as a record of what has been achieved during the course of the year.
Annual Review 2007/08 Building confidence

The HTA published its Annual Review 2007/08 on 30 July 2008. This has been a busy year for the HTA in which we approved almost 1000 living-donor transplants and licensed nearly 750 establishments. This year we published our full Annual Report and Accounts separately from our Annual Review.
In the Review, professionals and members of the public share their experiences of working with the HTA. This demonstrates not only the diverse range of work that we are responsible for, but also the positive effect our regulatory activity has had.
The Annual Review and Annual Report cover the HTA's work from 1 April 2007 to 31 March 2008.
