Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Graham Stuart and Ian C. Lucas

Thursday 28th June 2018 Commons Chamber

[Ian C. Lucas]

Wrexham pharmaceutical companies, such as Wockhardt and Ipsen Biopharm, export worldwide. Does the Minister agree that it is essential to preserve regulatory alignment to allow them to continue to export and develop in new markets?

[Graham Stuart]

I pay tribute to the hon. Gentleman, who is a great champion of his local exporting businesses. We need the right arrangements going forward to support the strong export growth we have seen. He will note that, since 2010, export growth for Wales has gone up by 82%.
