Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you for joining us today. I would like to begin by sharing some general impressions with you. Many players are closely monitoring the whole issue of pharmacovigilance, or the science of assessing the safety and effectiveness of pharmaceutical products, including your organization. What the committee needs is an organization chart showing all of the players, along with their different responsibilities.
Does Health Canada have this kind of organization chart that shows what responsibilities different organizations have and who reports to whom? Today, we are hearing from two of the main players, the Canadian Institute for Health Information and the Patented Medicine Prices Review Board. It is rather difficult for us to see how your respective responsibilities are connected, even though you claim to work with each other. Is an organization chart like this available from Health Canada?
