Proceeding contribution from Richard Taylor (Independent (affiliation)) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 December 2005. It occurred during Estimates day on Department of Health.


Department of Health

I am aware of that and I agree. The Government somehow have to balance the needs of patient safety and the industry’s ability not only to survive, but to survive in a reasonably profitable form. The lesson that we learned in Australia from New Zealand was that the controls were so firm that the pharmaceutical industry had virtually moved out of that country.
