Who will regulate treatments at Hong Kong’s new Chinese Medicine Hospital?

We're waiting for Seema Espita to read a recent response and update the status.

Dear Health Bureau,

Will the safety and efficacy of drugs and other treatments used in the new “Chinese Medicine Hospital of Hong Kong” be regulated and overseen by the Chinese Medicine Council of Hong Kong (as Chinese Medicine clinics usually are), The Department of Health, or another body? 

Yours faithfully,

Seema Espita
