Is there a function to get lookup meanings

Summary:

I am creating a report and the users require the displayed values for the lookups, I know I can do multiple links to the fnd_lookup_values_vl view (see code snippet) but is there a neater way to do this? Is there a function that will return the translated meaning of a lookup codes?
