Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the written correspondence from the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care to Baroness Casey of Blackstock on 5 March, whether the meeting with the Minister for Science, Research and Innovation to discuss dementia research and development took place; and what were the outcomes of those discussions.

There have been several discussions across Government on the development of work to accelerate clinical trials in dementia. An upcoming meeting between my Rt Hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, and Minister Vallance will discuss how to make the most of cross-Government opportunities to jointly deliver on these ambitions.
