Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment his Department has made of the need for additional investment in the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency after the UK leaves the EU.

The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency is a Government trading fund, and will continue to be so after the United Kingdom leaves the European Union. As a Government trading fund, the Agency will carry on recovering costs in the usual way.
