Thank you.
Mr. Robinson, you said that decisions to market prescribed prescription drugs are based on the best available evidence. Yet, the common practice amongst your members is to start clinical trials on new drugs by asking researchers to sign a contract. If they're ordered to stop the trial of the drug because the drug isn't working very well or it turns out that it's harming patients, they have to stop it and never talk about it again. There are very serious sanctions, which we've heard about publicly, if they ever do that.
The evidence that's covered up when those trials are stopped is often life-saving information, for example, if it's harming patients. In fact, the normal business practice amongst your members is to cover up the best available evidence on drugs. Can you please explain that to the committee?
