Interim methods guide for developing good practice guidance

This interim methods guide is based on the general principles and methods included in other methods guides for developing NICE guidance. 

This is not the current manual. From January 2015, guidelines were developed using Developing NICE guidelines: the manual.

From February 2014, good practice guidance became known as medicines practice guidelines. This is to bring the guideline naming in line with other NICE products. This is purely a name change, the processes and methods used to develop the guidelines remains the same.
