Barry Sheerman: Championing research into Energy Efficiency and the Environment
Posted: Jul 6, 2010
On July 1st, Barry Sheerman asked a topical question in the Energy and Climate Change Debate in the House of Commons Chamber. He asked the Secretary of State, the Rt. Hon Chris Huhne, "Can the ministerial team tell me what their assessment is of the effect of the 25% cut facing universities on research into energy efficiency and environmental research generally?"
The Rt. Hon Chris Huhne MP replied: "The hon. Gentleman asks an important question about the likely impact on research and development. We will obviously assess that when we know more fully the shape of what will be happening in the wake of the comprehensive spending review, but tough decisions will have to be taken. As I have said already, the former Chief Secretary to the Treasury told us clearly: there is no money left."
