UK in push to remain part of EU medicines agency after Brexit
Call to still be under bloc’s rules follows that from chemicals and aviation sectors
Britain is pushing to remain under EU regulation for medicines after Brexit, in the latest sign that ministers want to stay close to Europe in some sectors despite the bloc warning that the UK cannot cherry-pick parts of the single market.
The move follows calls for the UK’s chemicals and aviation industries to continue to be regulated by EU agencies, keeping them within Europe’s standards and safety regime and under the auspices of the European Court of Justice.
