The Member of Parliament for Efutu Constituency, Alexander Afenyo-Markin, is pushing for the production of pharmaceutical labels locally.

Mr Afenyo-Markin was speaking in parliament during a debate on the importation of pharmaceutical labels.

It will be recalled that some time last year, the minister responsible for Trade and Industry was on the floor of parliament to assure the house that steps were being taken to address such issues.

However, nothing has been heard about it since then.
