Dear,
Thank you for your email, dated 02 December 2021, in which you requested the clinical overview for Disulfiram 200 mg tablets (PL 25298/0151).
In response to your request, please find attached the clinical overview submitted to support the initial application for Disulfiram 200 mg tablets (PL 25298/0151). The documentation has been redacted under Section 40 (Personal Information), Section 41 (Information given in confidence) and Section 43 (Commercial Interests) of the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act.
Disclosure of information subject to Section 40 (Personal information) would be an infringement of personal data. Section 40 (Personal information) is an absolute exemption and no consideration of the public interest is required.
Section 41 (Information given in confidence) is an absolute exemption, and no consideration of the public interest is necessary, except to state that the release of this information withheld under this section of the FOI Act would be considered an actionable breach by the MHRA.
We have redacted some parts of the attached documentation under Section 43 (Commercial Interests) of the FOI Act because the release of all, or part of, the information would, or would be likely to, cause harm to the third party’s commercial interests. The exemption is to safeguard the commercially sensitive information/commercial enterprise This exemption is conditional on the public interest in releasing it not outweighing the company’s/commercial enterprise’s right to confidentiality and the probable damage that the company/commercial enterprise could suffer as a result of the information being released. We have considered the balance of the public interest when applying this exemption. In this case, we have not identified any issues which would benefit the public, as a whole, by being brought to their attention.
Please note that the documentation is historical and variation applications may have been submitted subsequently to update some of the information included.
