The ABPI Board of Management decided that Roche should be reinstated to membership with effect from February 16, but that the ABPI Board would review the report of a further audit to be held in November 2009 to ensure that progress was being maintained.
Roche was suspended from membership for a minimum of six months after it was found to be in breach of the Code, including Clause 2 which deals with activities that bring discredit on, or reduce confidence in, the pharmaceutical industry. ABPI Press Release, Monday 14 July 2008.
