The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what steps he plans to take to help improve the Office for Life Sciences.

Answered by Feryal Clark

The life sciences sector will play a crucial role in both kickstarting economic growth and building an NHS fit for the future. We plan to strengthen the Office for Life Sciences, so that it is politically empowered to truly drive delivery across government. We will bolster the Office for Life Science’s operation across departments to cement this sector’s world-leading status.
