answer text <p>The United Kingdom already has robust, domestic regimes in place for the safety, security, transport, use and disposal of nuclear and radioactive materials – including medical radioisotopes – throughout their lifecycle. These regimes will remain in place when Euratom arrangements no longer apply in the UK, ensuring we exit with certainty, clarity and control.</p><p>The Government is continuing to prepare for all European Union exit scenarios and is confident that we will be able to continue to provide a seamless supply of medicines, including medical radioisotopes, to National Health Service patients from the moment we leave the EU.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The Government is fully aware of the importance of medical radioisotopes and the reliance on nuclear medicine for diagnostic procedures in the National Health Service. The United Kingdom’s ability to import medical isotopes from Europe and the rest of the world will not be affected by withdrawal from Euratom. It is in the interest of both the UK and European Union to avoid disruption in the timely access of treatment to patients; and to ensure that cross-border trade with the EU is frictionless as possible. This will be part of the broader negotiations of the UK’s future relations with the EU.</p><p> </p> more like this
