Medical Technologies Directorate

Question

To ask Her Majesty's Government how they plan to measure the success of the Medical Technologies Directorate.

Answer

The new Medical Technologies Directorate within the Department was announced in May 2021. The Directorate is currently at a formative stage and recruitment to roles is about to commence. Although timelines are being finalised, we expect to publish a strategy including details of the remit, priorities, leadership, budget and accountabilities in early 2022. Success criteria will be determined once the Directorate budget has been finalised and the strategy has been finalised through engagement with industry and others.
