answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 17/11/2023 answer text <p>The Department funds respiratory research through the National Institute for Health and care Research (NIHR). It is not usual practice for the NIHR to ring-fence a proportion of its budget for research into particular topics or conditions. The NIHR welcomes funding applications for research into any aspect of human health, including into respiratory conditions. These applications are subject to peer review and judged in open competition, with awards being made on the basis of the importance of the topic to patients and health and care services, value for money and scientific quality. In all disease areas, the amount of NIHR funding depends on the volume and quality of scientific activity.</p> answering member constituency Pendle answering member printed Andrew Stephenson question first answered 17/11/2023 13:06:30 answering member 4044 label Biography information for Andrew Stephenson
