This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament

Petition removing the profit element out of the equation -of what your doctor prescibes for you.

More details

There are very powerful therapies out there which are just not being used because there is no profit in them.

Drug companies pay for most testing and will only and I mean only look at treatments, which show the promise of good deal of a profit, --they will actively dismiss any therapy OR PRODUCT which does not have profit potential.
Thus your doctor will only recommend therapies that have been tested .
These may not be the best and in 2004 5000 hospital beds were taken up from adverse reaction to drugs .

So we are calling for a dept to be set up so that promising therapies are looked at, tested and so that doctors can recomend them to their patients .
