Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether his Department is taking steps with (a) the Cystic Fibrosis Trust and (b) other patient organisations to implement his Department's Life Sciences Vision.
The Office for Life Sciences engage with patient representative organisations to deliver on ambitions in the Life Sciences Vision, including the healthcare missions and genomics. On cystic fibrosis specifically, we will soon be consulting the United Kingdom clinical trials community, individual medical research charities and the Association of Medical Research Charities, of which the Cystic Fibrosis Trust is a member, to implement the headline commitments and inform a full response to the independent Lord James O’Shaughnessy review into UK clinical trials.
