#“MPs urge government to stop NHS funding, and MHRA licensing, of homeopathy”
This was a challenging inquiry which provoked strong reactions. We were seeking to determine whether the Governments policies on homeopathy are evidence based on current evidence. They are not.
It sets an unfortunate precedent for the Department of Health to consider that the existence of a community which believes that homeopathy works is evidence enough to continue spending public money on it. This also sends out a confused message, and has potentially harmful consequences. We await the Governments response to our report with interest.

Nice to see the British have MPs with some cop-on. Great news for evidence-based medicine instead of voodoo.
