Administrative law 2021 FCA 157

Alexion Pharmaceuticals Inc. v. Canada (Attorney General)

The appeal was allowed because the Board's decision was unreasonable: its reasons were inadequate on critical points under Vavilov, it misinterpreted and exceeded its s.85 mandate by effectively regulating "reasonable" pricing and using the lowest international comparator without adequate justification for departing from Guidelines, and its remedial forfeiture under s.83 was inconsistent and relied on list prices rather than actual revenues; accordingly the Federal Court judgment was set aside, the Board's decision quashed and the matter remitted for redetermination.
