Thank you for your recent email asking me to sign Early Day
Motion (EDM) 66, which calls for a rigorous and fair public scientific debate,
between scientists, about best practice in medical research.
As a rule I do not sign Early Day Motions as they have no
legislative affect and I believe change can be driven better through the other
democratic processes available to us in Parliament.
I will certainly bear your comments during future debates
and discussion on this subject in Parliament in the future.
I hope this is helpful and thanks once more for getting in
touch.
