Dear Health and Food Safety,
Further to my requests for documents relating to a series of SANTE meetings with EFPIA, CEFIC, ECPA and ERF, which were registered under several different GestDem Numbers, I would like to inquire about those which I have not yet received a response to.
Whilst I have received your response to my requests GestDem No 2016/2119; 2016/2147; 2016/2149; 2016/2151, I have not yet received a response to my request GestDem 2016/211. An extended time limit was applied, until 08/06/2016, but this time limit has now passed, and I have not yet received a response concerning :
- the meeting of Director-General Xavier Prats Monné with EFPIA on 25/11/2015, on the subject of "AMR"; - the meeting of Commissioner Vytenis Andriukaitis and Annika Nowak with the European Federation of Pharmaceutical Industries and Associations (EFPIA) on 24/02/2016, on the subject of "Access to Medicines, HTA, AMR"
I'd kindly request an update on when I can expect to receive your response to my request GestDem 2016/2117, for which the extended time limit expired yesterday.
Many thanks for your prompt response.
