Question
What meetings has the Minister had with Welsh universities on research and development funding for health?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Health and Social Services
I have not had any meetings with Welsh Universities specifically on funding for health research and development, however my officials meet with the universities regularly in a range of contexts and funding is discussed along with other issues.
For instance, this was discussed at the recent Health & Care Research Wales Advisory Board meeting in January which has wide representation from the university sector.
As part of new refreshed advisory and governance arrangements for Health and Care Research Wales, regular meetings with senior university representatives are planned.
