answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/05/2019 answer text <p>The Health Service Products (Provision and Disclosure of Information) Regulations 2018 (the Regulations) prescribe when manufacturers, importers and wholesalers of special medicinal products are required to provide information. Since the Regulations entered into force, quarterly information has been received in November 2018 and February 2019 and information is again due at the end of May 2019. The requirement to provide quarterly sales, purchase and volume information about special medicinal products already applies to all manufacturers, importers and wholesalers regardless of their size. Therefore, there is no need for an assessment on the potential merits of requiring all small producers to automatically supply quarterly information.</p> answering member constituency South Ribble answering member printed Seema Kennedy grouped question UIN 252064 question first answered 13/05/2019 15:40:15 answering member 4455 label Biography information for Seema Kennedy
