Transparency at the Food and Drug Administration http://bit.ly/cGqhip

" More than 30 years ago, FDA Commissioner Kennedy noted

" a basic principle of our political system [is] that people affected by

governmental decisions have a right to know the basis on which they are

made. "

With the daily practice of medicine routinely affected by the decisions of

the FDA, the medical community has a large stake in transparency at the

agency. The full set of draft proposals can be found on the FDA's Web site

(www.fda.gov/transparency). "

All the best,
