This question was answered on 8th May 2019
The United Kingdom pharmaceutical sector is a major exporter with exports of £24.8 billion in 2018. Support to exports by United Kingdom pharmaceutical companies is co-ordinated by the Department for International Trade. We work closely with the sector to identify when Ministerial or official discussions with overseas counterparts are required and there is regular senior level engagement with the major UK pharmaceutical exporters.
