answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/06/2023 answer text <p>The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) does not have a specific list of conditions to which it gives priority when reviewing applications for new medicine licenses. However, it does prioritise applications where there is a public health need, for instance a new medicine which offers a treatment which is not yet available or a generic medicine where there might otherwise be a risk to supply. When deciding whether to prioritise a medicine, the MHRA collaborates with the Department and National Health Service to make sure its decisions align with their priorities.</p> answering member constituency Colchester answering member printed Will Quince grouped question UIN 188916 188917 189038 question first answered 20/06/2023 14:52:47 answering member 4423 label Biography information for Will Quince

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/11/2018 answer text <p>British Overseas Territory Citizens (BOTC) have never been subject to the five year UK residency criteria which has been removed for citizens of Commonwealth member countries. BOTC have one of six types of British nationality which already makes them eligible to apply to join the British Armed Forces, and they serve as part of the British cohort. As at 1 April 2018 there were 130 BOTC serving in the trained strength of the British Armed Forces.</p><p>However, for security reasons the Armed Forces continue to have UK residency criteria to ensure the appropriate security standards which all applicants are required to meet. This will vary depending on the Service and role being applied for but applications are considered on a case by case basis.</p> answering member constituency Milton Keynes North answering member printed Mark Lancaster question first answered 13/11/2018 15:51:57 answering member 1544 label Biography information for Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton
