Client Alert Series: The New EU “Pharma Package”
Client Alert | 1 min read | 06.30.25
On June 4, 2025, after nearly two years of intense debate and negotiation between the 27 EU Member States, the Council of the European Union adopted its position on the proposed overhaul of the EU general pharmaceutical legislative framework known as the new Pharma Package.
In this series of client alerts, we will analyze and compare the positions of the three EU institutions as they move into a new phase of negotiations (the “trilogues”). We will look at some of the most contentious issues, including the regulatory data protection framework, the transferable exclusivity voucher, the "Bolar" exemption, launch obligations and shortages mitigation, and other key issues affecting the pharmaceutical industry.

In the second alert, we discuss the respective positions of the European Commission, the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union with respect to one of the most debated and anxiously anticipated topics on the table, the regulatory data protection (RDP).
