The answer

Answered by Malcolm Chisholm on 6 Dec 2001 · 14 days after it was lodged, on time

The Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN) is an independent body, and decisions on proposals for the introduction of guidelines are a matter for the SIGN Council to consider. They are always willing to consider topics for new guidelines, but would need to consider how these could be fitted into the existing programme.
