Proceeding contribution from Paul Flynn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 December 2005. It occurred during Estimates day on Department of Health.


Department of Health

: The new code of practice is entirely cosmetic and has been described by the British Medical Association as lacking teeth. The Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin describes it as fundamentally weak in all respects. It is purely window-dressing to hide the drugs industry’s continuing close collaboration with the MHRA, which has been so detrimental to patients.
