FDA Statement

Statement by Dr. Lester M. Crawford, Acting FDA Commissioner in Response to A Release Issued Today by Rep. Maurice Hinchey

Daniel E. Troy is a dedicated and talented public servant who has provided excellent legal advice to FDA since his appointment in August 2001. He fully complied with the ethical requirement to recuse himself from any matter involving a past client for a year after beginning work in the public sector. FDA has accurately reported the scope and nature of Dan's private sector work. Any allegation that he has not conducted himself in compliance with applicable legal and ethical rules is simply false. Dan has my utmost confidence, as well as my heartfelt gratitude for his steadfast leadership and wise counsel during this important period in FDA's history.
