    From Rt Hon Greg Clark MP, Chair

    From Rt Hon Greg Clark MP, Chair Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP Prime Minister (By e-mail) 23 March 2021 Dear Prime Minister, Cuts to scientific research I am writing to you in my capacity as Chair of the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee. My Committee strongly welcomes the Government’s commitments to science as exemplified by the commitment to increase public R&D expenditure to £22bn a year by 2024–25, to invest 2.4% of GDP in R&D by 2027, and last week the clear focus of the UK being a science superpower in the Integrated Review. The last year has demonstrated the vital importance of science and the brilliance of UK scientists. It is deeply concerning that at the very moment when the whole country recognises the importance of scientific research and when a Government has been elected with a promise to double the budget for research, that the science budget should be facing immediate and substantial cuts involving the cancellation of current research. Scientists such as Sir Jeremy Farrar, Director of Wellcome, who has been a leading member of SAGE throughout the pandemic, and our institutions of global repute such as the Royal Society, have expressed their alarm at the consequences of three developments in particular. First, it has been suggested that the UK’s participation in Horizon Europe will be funded (at a cost of £2bn/year) from the BEIS science budget. While the UK was a Member State this formed part of the UK’s overall subscription to the European Union and was always accepted to be additional to the BEIS science/R&D budget.

    A Guide to the Government for BIA Members

    A guide to the Government for BIA members Correct as of 11 January 2018 On 8-9 January 2018, Prime Minister Theresa May conducted a ministerial reshuffle. This guide has been updated to reflect the changes. The Conservative government does not have a parliamentary majority of MPs but has a confidence and supply deal with the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). The DUP will support the government in key votes, such as on the Queen's Speech and Budgets, as well as Brexit and security matters, which are likely to dominate most of the current Parliament. This gives the government a working majority of 13. This is a briefing for BIA members on the new Government and key ministerial appointments for our sector.

    Research Note: Former Special Advisers in Cabinet, 1979-2013

    Research Note: Former Special Advisers in Cabinet, 1979-2013 Executive Summary Sixteen special advisers have gone on to become Cabinet Ministers. This means that of the 492 special advisers listed in the Constitution Unit database in the period 1979-2010, only 3% entered Cabinet. Seven Conservative party Cabinet members were formerly special advisers. o Four Conservative special advisers went on to become Cabinet Ministers in the 1979-1997 period of Conservative governments. o Three former Conservative special advisers currently sit in the Coalition Cabinet: David Cameron, George Osborne and Jonathan Hill. Eight Labour Cabinet members between 1997-2010 were former special advisers. o Five of the eight former special advisers brought into the Labour Cabinet between 1997-2010 had been special advisers to Tony Blair or Gordon Brown. o Jack Straw entered Cabinet in 1997 having been a special adviser before 1979. One Liberal Democrat Cabinet member, Vince Cable, was previously a special adviser to a Labour minister. The Coalition Cabinet of January 2013 currently has four members who were once special advisers. o Also attending Cabinet meetings is another former special adviser: Oliver Letwin as Minister of State for Policy. There are traditionally 21 or 22 Ministers who sit in Cabinet. Unsurprisingly, the number and proportion of Cabinet Ministers who were previously special advisers generally increases the longer governments go on. The number of Cabinet Ministers who were formerly special advisers was greatest at the end of the Labour administration (1997-2010) when seven of the Cabinet Ministers were former special advisers. The proportion of Cabinet made up of former special advisers was greatest in Gordon Brown’s Cabinet when almost one-third (30.5%) of the Cabinet were former special advisers.

    FRIDAY 18 FRIDAY The Lincoln Hotel, LN2 1PN “5 DAYS IN JUNE” 12.00 - 14.30 in The Lincoln Suite On Friday 18th November Karl McCartney, the Member of Parliament for Lincoln and a recently elected Member of the Exiting the EU Select Committee, will be hosting a Business Lunch at The Lincoln Hotel with his Parliamentary colleague Jake Berry MP who was at the heart of The Rt. Hon. Boris Johnson MP’s Leadership Campaign. Jake’s talk “5 days in June” will reveal some of the behind the scenes actions and consequences following the resignation of The Rt. Hon. David Cameron MP as Prime Minister. That decision rapidly led to Boris’ declaration as one of the Leadership Candidates, followed just days later by his unexpected withdrawal from the Campaign and then the subsequent exciting and quickly reached conclusion for the Nation of our new Prime Minister, The Rt. Hon. Theresa May MP. Do join us for this Business Lunch at 12.30. Ask some of those questions we all want to know the answers to, from a Parliamentarian who was at the very centre of the campaign and on the shoulder of a key player during this momentous event in British Politics. th Tickets are £25 per person for Lunch & Coffee with payment required by Monday 14th November.
