Macroscopic reflections on China’s drug supervision system in transition / 中国卫生政策研究

ABSTRACT

The sound implementation of a legal system depends on scientific ideas and an efficient supervision system. Presently, the drug supervision system is a period of transition, with the prospects of establishing a modern supervision system that incorporates the ideals of risk management. To this end, the responsibilities of the drug super-vision agency shall be adjusted horizontally and vertically so as to enhance the efficiency of supervision and to avoid an overlap of functions or supervision vacancy. We should enhance the capacity for governance and cultivate the self-discipline of the industry and associations. The implementation of administrative accountability is necessary to ensure that institutional responsibilities are fulfilled and thereby realize public health.
