lpv:spoken text	"It is unbelievable that, in two essential areas such as health and consumer protection, in Malta and Gozo, the official structures are completely passive in spite of blatant transgressions. Zocor 20 mg Price in Malta for a box of 28: EUR 34.94 Price in Brussels for a box of 84: EUR 21.71 For 84 pills, the price in Malta is EUR 104.82 as compared to EUR 21.71 in Brussels. These are only a few examples of a situation which is contributing to the hardship being suffered by the majority of Maltese families. The EU prides itself on health and consumer protection but in the Maltese Islands, the price of medications has spiralled for no justifiable reason. In the Maltese Islands, medicines are much more expensive than in another EU country, namely Belgium. I will give the following examples: Galvus 50 mg (diabetic pills) Price in Malta for a box of 28: EUR 27.84 Price in Brussels for a box of 180: EUR 135.13 For 180 pills, the price in Malta is EUR 178.97 as compared to EUR 135.13 in Brussels. Tegretol 200 mg Price in Malta for a box of 50: EUR 17.00 Price in Brussels for a box of 50: EUR 7.08"@en1
