Professor Tamara Hervey:

One of the things about health policy is that it does not fit very well in the boxes of European Union law. The policy will not fit very well in the boxes of that government's arrangement and will span a number of working groups and technical groups. One of the questions for this committee might be as follows. Where will the health sector be represented in something that is considering agriculture, services, product supply, food, public health issues, and air and water quality? I say that because the health policy will not be a box in that governance structure.
