Abstract
The format for this third report of the Lancet Commission follows the same pattern as in 2015 in concentrating on the main recommendations, all of which are evidence based and have been most carefully considered in terms of their ability to reduce the current burden of liver disease in the UK and its financial cost. The working groups set up around the recommendations have concentrated this year on producing a set of the main metrics, which will enable further charting of disease prevalence and consequences on an annual basis. They have also identified those areas where important data are not being obtained, which needs to be rectified. The metrics shown were decided on after extensive discussion and in many cases numerical data are incomplete, having not been available within the timeframe for this report. Where targets have not been set, the aim is to consider these further in the next year's programme of work.
