Why is there no separate clause for medical education? Can a pharmaceutical company run a medical educational meeting which is wholly non-promotional, even if a company medicine is mentioned?

The purpose of every meeting must be educational. The definition of promotion is very broad and far reaching and, as such, if a company organised meeting discussed its medicines, the company should consider how this would not be defined as promotion under the Code. The supplementary information to Clause 10.1 Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Meetings and Courses is also relevant.
