Mr. Pat O'Mahony:

The first 20 active ingredients we were asked to look at are included in 1,500 individual medicines, a substantial number of authorised medicines in Ireland. Our process has gone well and we now have a number of lists published. However, as the committee may be aware, the HSE must set the reference price, but it has not yet done so. It is some months behind us. It has a process that it must go through under the legislation. I believe the reference prices for the first list of items will issue in October or November. Is that correct?
