The Department has well-established processes to manage and mitigate the small number of supply problems that may arise at any one time due to manufacturing, regulatory or distribution issues. We work closely with manufacturers, all parts of the supply chain, and where needed others including the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency and NHS England to ensure that deliveries are expedited and future supplies are brought forward to prevent shortages and ensure that any risks to patients are minimised when they do arise.
