Proceeding contribution from Brian Iddon (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 December 2005. It occurred during Estimates day on Department of Health.
Department of Health
I agree. I am suggesting that criminal entrepreneurs have now entered the parallel trading market. Last night, I was given a figure for the amount of counterfeit, parallel-traded products that are now entering the market in this country. I shall not repeat it because I cannot remember it accurately, but it was a very significant figure indeed. I ask my hon. Friend the Minister to listen to the industry on this issue, because it is now complaining very loudly, not only directly to the Department of Health but through trade organisations such as the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry.
