Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Evaluating Orphan Drugs: Discussion (Resumed)

9:00 am

Dr. Derick Mitchell:

I reiterate that there is a specific recommendation in the national plan for a budget. It does not specify the total amount and certainly is not viewed as a target but as a way in which we can effectively measure the spend. It has not been touched as part of the current plan, however. We certainly hope that as the new plan is being developed, it will be re-examined in that context.
