View on hansard.parliament.uk ↗

The Minister for Health (Edward Argar)
ConservativeMelton and Syston
I would like to inform the House that I wish to correct the formal record in relation to written answer 62745 to the hon. Member for Aberavon (Stephen Kinnock) on 28 October 2021.
The reply stated that neither the Department nor the former Public Health England has any collaborative, commercial or contractual links to the Beijing Genomics Institute or its subsidiaries.
The correct answer is that BGI Genomics UK Limited was awarded a call-off contract from a framework contract held by Public Health England in August 2021 following a mini competition. This call-off contract lapsed on 14 November 2021 and no further contract with BGI has been let.
