Mr. Speaker, the Minister of Health should bring the controversy to an end by clarifying a few things.
He is saying that junior officials in his department made a very controversial decision and action to break the patent law, to put in a huge order for an amount of drugs that already were available and had been provided, that he already had. He is putting it all on these junior officials.
I would like to ask him very clearly, did he himself or his office know that these so-called phantom junior officials were taking this very controversial action?
