Quote: "In line with the president's decree, MSABs will be disbanded by the end of this year, and a transparent digital European model will be introduced for the relevant assessments. In addition, today I instructed the Minister of Health to submit all necessary regulatory documents and draft laws to the Cabinet of Ministers by no later than 1 November in order to finalise this reform."
