They can therefore get the required information through proper channels. they dont need to buy it cannot understand why this policy needed.
The fact also we in climate at moment where research and developments in the pharmasutical industry being pegged back or even scrapped.

At the moment the drug companies use data from studies on patients who enter into drug trials .The proposed scheme (as i understand it) will allow the use of data gathered by the NHS over the lifetime of patients making the developement of treatments and drugs a much speedier affair
