Trade Agreements: USA
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he has made an assessment of the potential impact of the UK-US trade deal on the health and social care sectors.
Answered by Ashley Dalton
The Department continues to work closely with United Kingdom pharmaceutical firms, life sciences trade associations, and other Government departments to assess the potential impact of the UK-US Economic Prosperity Deal on the health and social care sectors. The Government is clear that we will only ever sign trade agreements that align with the UK’s national interests, and that the National Health Service will never be on the table for any trade agreement.
