§ Mr. David MartinTo ask the Secretary of State for Health when he expects to receive the annual report of the Medicines Commission for 1990.
§ Mrs. Virginia BottomleyWe have received the report and copies have today been laid before both Houses of Parliament in accordance with the requirements of section 5(2) of the Medicines Act 1968.
Bound volumes have been placed in the Library containing the 1990 reports of the Medicines Commission, the Committee on Safety of Medicines, the Veterinary Products Committee, the British Pharmacopoeia Commission, the Committee on the Review of Medicines and the Committee on Dental and Surgical Materials.
We are glad to pay tribute to the valuable work done by the distinguished members of the Medicines Act advisory bodies and thank them warmly for the time and effort which they contribute to the public interest in this most important field.
