I am delighted to get the chance to address the Minister on this, as I was delighted to welcome the Prime Minister to our patch. But will the

Minister agree with Opposition Members, and in fact with GlaxoSmithKline, that it was the patent box legislation that Labour put forward that, as Andrew Witty said before the last election, would transform the life sciences sector? Will the Minister say thank you to us for putting that forward? We are glad that she has taken it on.
