Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will make an assessment of the potential merits of reviewing the effectiveness of regulatory measures on the use of medicines (a) developed and (b) produced with public funding.

The Department is confident in the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency’s (MHRA) world-leading regulatory regime, for publicly funded medicines and others. There are no current plans for a review of regulatory measures on the use of medicines developed and produced with public funding.
