31. Mr. Latham

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services what is the latest position regarding the work of the advisory committee on the limited list of drugs available under the National Health Service.

Mr. Hayhoe

To date the Committee has met four times and has considered representations from the pharmaceutical industry and medical profession in respect of a number of drugs affected by the Selected List Scheme. In the light of the Committee's recommendations, the status of some drugs under the scheme was changed by Regulations which came into effect on 1 December.
