"supply" for the first three and "regulations" for the fourth. Explanation: "Generic provision" means "provision of generic drugs", and in this case "provision" means the act of providing or supplying, or that which is provided or supplied. "Provisioning requirements" are the supplies (of generic drugs) required, and "provisioning terms" are the terms on which they are provided or supplied. In paragraph 4 "provisions" clearly means rules or regulations. "provision 1. The act of supplying or fitting out. 2. Something provided. 3. A preparatory action or measure. 4. provisions A stock of necessary supplies, especially food. 5. A stipulation or qualification, especially a clause in a document or agreement."
