ALT "Streamlining clinical trials leads to faster access to innovations for patients, so it’s great to see progress towards the 150-day set up target. Alongside wider improvements in predictability and consistency of timelines, this will support clinical research backed by both commercial and non-commercial funders - a triple win for the economy, for the NHS and for patients." Nicola Perrin, Chief Executive, Association of Medical Research Charities (AMRC)

ALT "For our member charities, the worst possible scenario is having a discovery stuck in the lab, or a treatment available in other countries but not through the NHS. We therefore welcome today's announcement and the progress that has been made since last December. This reinforces the Government's commitment to making the UK one of the best places in the world to develop new treatments. It will also help to ensure that patients can access new medicines as quickly as possible." Nicola Perrin, Chief Executive, Association of Medical Research Charities (AMRC)
