Clive Jones

Liberal Democrat — Wokingham

Speaking in the House of Commons on 30 January 2025

Debate

International Investment

Contribution

I declare an interest: a family member has shares in a medical company. In the United States, President Trump created chaos by freezing funding for the National Institutes of Health, and his nominee for US Health Secretary is an anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist. The United Kingdom has the perfect opportunity to seize this moment and make ourselves a beacon for global research investment. Already, Wokingham has many pharmaceutical businesses, such as Becton Dickinson and Hollister. What steps is the Minister taking to ensure we attract global life sciences sectors to the UK?
