(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order revokes the Medicines (Committee on the Review of Medicines) Order 1975. That Order established the Committee on the Review of Medicines for the purpose of advising the licensing authority under the Medicines Act 1968, in connection with the review of product licences of right granted in accordance with section 25 of that Act. That review is now complete and the Committee is therefore abolished.
