QUOTED. 6 August 2020. Department of Health and Social Care.
Executive Summary
The UK Department of Health and Social Care recently asked medical device and pharmaceutical companies to establish contingency measures in case of supply problems post-Brexit.
“We encourage companies to make stockpiling a key part of contingency plans, and ask industry, where possible, to stockpile to a target level of six weeks’ total stock on UK soil. DHSC stands ready to support companies with their plans if required and understands that a flexible approach to preparedness may be required that considers a mixture of stockpiling and rerouting plans as necessary.” – UK Department of Health and Social Care
