FDA COMMISSIONER-NOMINEE HENNEY's SENATE QUESTIONS CHALLENGED by Mary Rouleau, legislative director of the Consumer Federation of America at an FDA Aug. 17 "stakeholders" meeting to discuss the agency's obligations under the FDA Modernization Act. Questions posed by the Senate Labor & Human Resources Committee to FDA Commissioner nominee Jane Henney, MD, prior to her upcoming confirmation hearing, represent an "unprecedented effort to tie the hands of the commissioner in advance of proper study of the issues," Rouleau said.
