Government that is hard on quackery and false claims in advertising, especially considering that... Dr Ken Harvey, a drug policy expert and adjunct associate professor at Monash University’s school of public health, said the study drew attention to longstanding deficiencies in Australia’s complementary medicines regulation. “These include no pre-market evaluation of sponsors’ products against compositional quality standards or promotional claims, limited and poorly targeted post-market surveillance, and a lack of effective penalties that would deter sponsors from repeated breaches of TGA regulations,” he said. “This is far from a recent finding; numerous reports over the last decade have recommended that the lack of effective penalties should be redressed.” Eric, this is what is permitted by a failure of Gov to meaningfully regulate an industry. of course, youll just say that everyone should be allowed to buy what they like and suffer whatever consequences come, but there is something about lying to people about the contents of products that would then make an education choice impossible, dont you think?
