Parliament votes for jobs in the EU generic and biosimilar meds industries
Adoption of the European Parliament’s report on the Single Market Strategy in Plenary has been applauded by Medicines for Europe, which represents generic and biosimilar medicines producers in Europe.
In their report, Members of the Parliament urged the European Commission to introduce and implement before 2019 an SPC (Supplementary Protection Certificate) manufacturing waiver to boost the competitiveness of the European generic and biosimilar medicines industries in a highly competitive global environment which will create additional jobs and growth in the EU.
The export of generic and biosimilar medicines to unprotected markets during the SPC period will stimulate investment in Europe, support the creation of highly skilled jobs and increase access to high quality medicines in third countries, without changing the equilibrium between the originator and the generic and biosimilar medicines industries in the EU.
