Coronavirus: Vaccination

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether the terms of the indemnity against product liability given to Pfizer for the manufacture and supply of covid-19 vaccines are conditional upon the provision of accurate information on the results of trials of that vaccine undertaken prior to the start of the contract with that company; and if he will make a statement.

Answer

We are not able to disclose the details of some clauses of contracts between the Government and vaccine manufacturers as this information is commercially sensitive.
