The Medical Schools Council welcomes this second call for evidence as an opportunity to contribute to the Academy of Medical Sciences review of the regulation and governance of medical research.  Further to our submission of evidence in June, the Medical Schools Council remains fully supportive of efforts to improve research governance and reduce bureaucracy.  Whilst the NHS provides an optimal framework for clinical research, which should provide the UK with a strong competitive advantage, this is currently eroded by the burden of regulation from a multiplicity of regulatory organisations.
