CaSE submission – Science budget and Industrial Strategy

Read CaSE’s submission to the Commons Science & Technology committee inquiry; Science budget and Industrial Strategy. 

CaSE calls on the Government to:

• Create a roadmap for R&D investment to reach the Government’s long term goal of reaching 3% of GDP in partnership with the private sector.
  
  
• Meet the Government’s commitment of reaching 2.4% of GDP spent on R&D, set an interim milestone to increase public investment in R&D to 0.7% of GDP by 2022.
  
  
• Ensure that the UK remains an attractive place for business to invest, as R&D funding is dominated by the private sector.
