TRANSPARENCY AND ANTI-CORRUPTION Sample Clauses

TRANSPARENCY AND ANTI-CORRUPTION. ‌ The CPTPP includes some novel transparency provisions intended to assist businesses operating in other CPTPP markets, and to combat bribery and corruption. It imposes procedural requirements with a view to ensuring that Parties administer measures covered by the Agreement in a consistent, impartial, and reasonable manner. The CPTPP is the first international agreement in which New Zealand has agreed to include specific transparency-related provisions on pharmaceutical and medical device reimbursement (or subsidy) programmes. The provisions, included in an annex to the chapter, are intended to promote transparency and due process in decisions to list pharmaceuticals and medical devices for reimbursement. For New Zealand, the Annex would apply to some activities of the Pharmaceutical Management Agency (PHARMAC). PHARMAC would need to follow the provisions for all formal applications seeking listing and reimbursement (subsidisation) on its Pharmaceutical Schedule. But a range of other PHARMAC activities are not covered by the Annex, including: • Any government procurement-related decisions, including current PHARMAC processes for hospital medicines and hospital cancer treatments. • Other PHARMAC programmes such as Named Patient Pharmaceutical Assessment. • Any decisions on medical device reimbursement. While some other countries have agreed to apply the provisions of the Annex to both pharmaceuticals and medical devices, New Zealand’s commitments under the Annex are limited to “medicines” as defined by the Medicines Act 1981.
