That sentence, in plain words

The Secretary must look at the data. The data is about how these drugs are listed. The drugs mix buprenorphine and naloxone.

What this is about

Federal law sorts controlled drugs into lists called schedules. The list a drug is on sets how tightly it is held. This pair of drugs is used to treat addiction.
