Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what representations he has made to his EU counterparts on the UK remaining a member of the European Medicines Agency after the UK leaves the EU.

The Government is fully assessing how the United Kingdom’s decision to leave the European Union will impact on medicines regulation in the UK. This includes the UK’s future membership with the European Medicines Agency which will be considered in upcoming negotiations between the UK and EU.
