Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, if he will make an assessment of the adequacy of the accessibility of the consultation entitled Investigation into suspected anti-competitive conduct by Vifor Pharma in relation to intravenous iron treatments, published on 31 January 2024.

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) is the UK's independent competition authority, and its consultations, including the live consultation relating to commitments offered by Vifor Pharma (https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/consultation-on-proposed-commitments-in-respect-of-vifor-pharmas-supply-of-intravenous-iron), are therefore independent of Government. Any questions relating to consultations carried out by the CMA should be sent directly to the CMA.
