135. Deputy Pádraig O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Health the current number of whole-time equivalent staff working in the pricing and reimbursement system for medicines; the number in the HSE's corporate pharmaceutical unit; the number in the NCPE, the NCCP and the HSE's Medicines Management Programme; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [9448/24]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe National Centre for Pharmacoeconomics (NCPE) has 20.5 whole-time equivalent staff.
As this is a service matter, I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond to the Deputy directly, as soon as possible, providing the requested information on the number of staff in the Corporate Pharmaceutical Unit (CPU), the National Cancer Control Programme (NCCP), and the Medicines Management Programme (MMP).
