Asked by:
Navendu Mishra (Labour)

I refer the Hon. Member for Stockport to the answer I gave to the Hon. Member for Hayes and Harlington on July 2022 (UIN: 25725). I would also like to note that discussions on a TRIPS Decision were held at the World Trade Organisation (WTO) and not at the World Health Organisation (WHO).
