Proposition de loi révisant le dispositif des stocks de sécurité des médicaments
This is an ordinary bill (proposition de loi) tabled in the French National Assembly during the 17th legislature. Its title indicates that it would revise the rules governing strategic or security stockpiles of medicines, which are reserves kept to avoid shortages of essential drugs. Such stockpiles have become a policy focus after recurring supply disruptions in France and across Europe. The main groups affected would be pharmaceutical companies, wholesalers and distributors, pharmacies, and patients who depend on continuous access to medicines. Public health authorities responsible for managing the reserves would also be affected. The metadata does not specify the exact changes proposed.
