Postgres data to XML format

I have this in postgres:

copy (select  xmlelement(name atccode, xmlattributes(secondary_label as code), 
xmlelement(name description, secondary_label || ' - ' || label)) 
from study_subject where study_id=28 order by label) 
to 'includes/output10.xml';

It gives me the following in the output10.xml file:

<atccode code="6995">
  <description>6995 - Atkins, Dian</description>
</atccode>
<atccode code="130">
  <description>130 - Bailey, Howard H, MD</description>
</atccode>

How can I get this:

<atclist>
<atccode code="6995">
  <description>6995 - Atkins, Dian</description>
</atccode>
<atccode code="130">
  <description>130 - Bailey, Howard H, MD</description>
</atccode>
</atclist>
