Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, pursuant to the Answer of 8 December 2014 to Question 216568, what discussions his Department had with patient groups other than Breast Cancer Campaign, when developing its response to the Off-patent Drugs Bill.
We have had no other discussions with patient groups other than Breast Cancer Campaign. The Bill raises a number of issues and we will be discussing these at a roundtable stakeholder event in the new year, to which a broader range of patient groups will be invited.
