Increased coverage

There is a great deal more that needs to be said about the theoretical limitations and practical application of cost-benefit analysis, but I do not wish to interfere if further work on this article is planned. If not, I may shortly add some further material - an outline of which I will set out in advance if anyone wishes. In any case, I propose to do some drafting concerning its grounding in welfare economics in the article on that subject. Nick Gardner 03:48, 11 April 2008 (CDT)

Proposed redraft

In view of the lack of response to my earlier proposal, I now intend to undertake an extensive redraft of this article. I shall, as far as possible, retain the existing material concerning medical CBA while adding a substantial amount of additional material concerning its theoretical underpinning and its wider application.

I propose also to replace the opening statement with a more general summary.
