While public consultation is beneficial, it also presents several challenges:
Resource Intensive: Conducting comprehensive consultations requires significant time, financial resources, and personnel. Participation: Ensuring broad and representative participation can be difficult, particularly among hard-to-reach populations. Data Management: Collecting and analyzing large volumes of data from consultations can be complex and requires robust systems. Balancing Interests: Integrating diverse and sometimes conflicting views into public health policies is a challenging task.
