The 2019 Voluntary Scheme for Branded Medicines Pricing and Access includes a commitment to faster NICE assessments of new medicines, with timelines for non-cancer drugs to match those for cancer drugs, subject to the evidence base for the product being sufficiently developed.</p> answering member constituency South Ribble answering member printed Seema Kennedy question first answered 21/05/2019 10:58:38 answering member 4455 label Biography information for Seema Kennedy
