Drugs: Shortages
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, whether he has taken steps to help tackle medicine shortages in Northern Ireland.
Answered by Hilary Benn
Medicines supply in Northern Ireland remains stable. UK-wide supply issues may arise from time to time due to manufacturing problems or access to raw materials. The overwhelming majority of medicines are in good supply and we have well-established processes to manage supply issues.
