ANNEX I
Letter to the Medicines Control Agency
from the Health Food Manufacturers' Association
Yesterday was spent in Parliament giving evidence
to the Agriculture Committee and hearing the evidence of other
witnesses on the science and sales of Vitamin B6 products.
As you know the deadline for submissions on
the proposed Regulations is 26 June. It would help me greatly
if you could answer two questions, both based on the assumption
that manufacturers are producing products to the requisite standards
of GMP:
(1) Will products containing 50mg and above
of Vitamin B6 be granted licenses more or less automatically?
If so, for what indications and at what cost?
(2) The majority of products on the market
containing 50mg or more of B6 also contain other vitamins and/or
herbs. How could these be licensed and at what cost?
An early reply would be most helpful.
