"We should seriously reflect and learn from these cases. We should fully protect public food and drug safety. The new drug registration regulation, which will come out soon, will ensure the transparency of the drug approval procedure," Yan said.
The government has come under great pressure to overhaul the country''s food and drug safety system following a series of controversies caused by shoddy products and corruption scandals involving high-ranking SFDA officials.
She acknowledged that the country''s food and drug safety situation was unsatisfactory and supervision needed to be strengthened.
Yan said the government had laid out a five-year plan to tighten the supervision of food and drug products to "significantly reduce the number of incidents caused by substandard food or drug products" by 2010.
