Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health

Brexit Preparations Update: Discussion

Mr. Jim Breslin:

All of the agencies represented here are in very close communication with them. It is probably worth saying that on 10 September, every stakeholder, including wholesalers, the Irish Pharmacy Union, the Irish Pharmaceutical Healthcare Association, IPHA, representing the major manufacturers, and Medicines for Ireland representing the generic manufacturers, were at the same table and the Minister was present. We received updates on everybody's preparations and we gave updates on ours. We are all on the same page on this. We are all working together on it. Our assessment is shared.
