The Yardley decision (paragraph 52) was well known at the time of your question and this decisions is dated 25 Feb 2022. Medsafe should know about this decision and the successful religious grounds in it on fetal cell lines. Medsafe is obliged to answer the entire OIA request in order to avoid religious discrimination.
