uin	170342
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2018 answer text <p>The Government has made significant progress in negotiations with the European Union and remains confident the United Kingdom will leave with a good deal for both sides. This deal will include ensuring patients in the UK have access to appropriate, safe, and cost effective medicines, including short shelf-life medicines.</p><p> </p><p>However, as a responsible Government, we continue to prepare proportionately for all scenarios, including the unlikely outcome that we leave the EU without any deal in March 2019. Therefore on 23 August 2018, the Department wrote to a number of pharmaceutical companies that supply medicines for National Health Service patients from, or via, the EU/European Economic Area (EEA), asking them to ensure that they have a minimum of six weeks additional supply in the UK, over and above their business as usual operational buffer stocks by 29 March 2019.</p><p> </p><p>For certain medicines with short shelf lives, which cannot be reasonably stockpiled, we are specifically asking that where these products are imported to the UK from the EU/EEA via road haulage and roll-on, roll-off sea, road and rail routes, suppliers ensure in advance plans to air freight these medicines to the UK. This will ensure that UK patients have the same access to these medicines as they currently do in unlikely event of the UK leaving the EU without a deal.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine question first answered 12/09/2018 16:26:05 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine

uin	170343
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2018 answer text <p>The Department has received £2,328 million from members of the Pharmaceutical Price Regulation Scheme (PPRS), as of Q1 2018, in respect of PPRS payments made under the 2014 scheme. The estimated United Kingdom income from PPRS payments in 2018/19 is £470 million. Published aggregate information on sales reports and payments made under the scheme on a quarterly basis can be found on the Government’s website at the following link:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/pprs-quarterly-net-sales-and-payment-information" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/pprs-quarterly-net-sales-and-payment-information</a></p><p> </p><p>The Department administers the scheme on behalf of all UK nations and PPRS payments that companies make under the scheme in respect of the UK are allocated to each of the four countries on an agreed basis each year. The Department ensures that all the income it receives from PPRS payments in England is reinvested in the National Health Service for patients’ benefit. The Department includes the expected PPRS payments in setting the NHS England allocations in advance of each year. NHS England is responsible for allocating the overall budget between clinical commissioning groups, specialised commissioning etc.</p><p> </p><p>Following normal Government accounting rules, there is no separately identified or ring-fenced funding stream associated with the PPRS payment. The Government is committed to improving access to clinically and cost-effective medicines including innovative new medicines and to optimise patient outcomes from these medicines.</p> answering member constituency Winchester answering member printed Steve Brine grouped question UIN 170344 170345 question first answered 12/09/2018 16:32:57 answering member 4067 label Biography information for Steve Brine
