<p>As part of our work preparing to make a success of our departure from the European
Union we are undertaking a broad range of sectoral analysis covering the entirety
of the UK economy, including the medical services sector.</p><p> </p><p>As both the
Secretary of State for Health and the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and
Industrial Strategy stated in their letter to the Financial Times on 5th July, the
UK is fully committed to continuing the close working relationship in this area with
our European partners. Our aim is to ensure that patients in the UK and across the
EU continue to be able to access the best and most innovative medicines and be assured
that their safety is protected through the strongest regulatory framework and the
sharing of data.</p><p /> <p> </p><p>The UK has one of the strongest and most productive
medical services sectors in the world. We are committed to ensuring a positive outcome
for the sector, that builds on the success that we are rightly proud of, as we exit
the EU.</p><p> </p>
