European Medicines Agency
Wednesday 5th July 2017

Asked by: Bim Afolami (Conservative - Hitchin and Harpenden)

Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union :

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, what plans the Government has to negotiate for the European Medicines Agency to remain in the UK.

Answered by Steve Baker

The UK’s future relationship with the EMA is a matter for negotiation. In the negotiations the Government will discuss with the EU and Member States how best to continue cooperation in the field of medicines regulation in the best interests of both the UK and the EU.
