Tom Gordon

Liberal Democrat — Harrogate and Knaresborough

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 September 2025

Debate

Life Sciences Investment

Contribution

This is just the latest in a series of blows to UK life sciences. Companies have been pulled towards the US with incentives and tariffs, while we have no detailed industrial strategy, an uncompetitive tax regime from the Treasury, and a Department of Health and Social Care that undervalues drug access. When the Government announced their life sciences plan, it fell short of what the industry and the sector expected, so will the Government commit to an updated cross-party refresh and give businesses the stability they need to invest in Britain?
