Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what Commissioning for Quality and Innovation payments have been made as a result of NHS providers complying with the commercialisation of intellectual property pre-qualification to date.

NHS England is responsible for the intellectual property strategy for the National Health Service.

NHS England has advised that, as part of the Innovation Health and Wealth work programme, it has undertaken a review of the existing NHS intellectual property strategy and is revisiting this as part of its refresh of Innovation Health and Wealth which is currently being undertaken.
