Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Zubir Ahmed and Peter Swallow

Tuesday 25th November 2025 Commons Chamber

[Peter Swallow (Bracknell) (Lab)]

Bracknell is a life sciences superpower, with Eli Lilly, Sandoz and Boehringer Ingelheim all having a footprint in our town. What can we do to speed up clinical trial set-up to help to deliver the next generation of treatments for our NHS?

[Dr Ahmed]

The Government are already committed to clinical trials being under 150 days by next March. I commend my hon. Friend on all the work he does with his local pharmaceutical companies in advancing medical science locally and nationally.
