Rebecca Long-Bailey comment on Life Sciences Sector Deal
Rebecca Long-Bailey MP, Labour’s Shadow Secretary for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, commenting on the Life Sciences Sector Deal, said:
“The Government’s embarrassing and shambolic approach to Brexit compromises many of the policies outlined in today’s Life Sciences Sector Deal and in last week’s White Paper.
“The European Medicines Agency has already been relocated to Amsterdam as a result of the Government’s approach, despite Labour’s warning that failure to ensure continued membership of the EMA would cause massive disruption to the pharmaceutical industry.
“Labour’s industrial strategy will bring the private and public sectors together to deliver the skills, infrastructure and business policies which will radically transform our economy for the many, not the few.’’
