Catherine West – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Exiting the European Union

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Catherine West on 2016-10-07.

To ask the Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union, whether the Government plans to negotiate to continue participation in the European Medicines Agency after the UK leaves the EU.

Mr David Jones

The Government is considering all the options available as we negotiate a new relationship with the European Union.

We are about to begin these negotiations and it would be wrong to set out further unilateral positions in advance. At every step of these negotiations we will work to ensure the best possible outcome for the British people.
