Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Shaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 December 2007. It occurred during Debate on Fisheries.


Fisheries

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for providing those statistics. He will be aware that we have agreed 10 years of funding for CEFAS; that has never happened before. It is essential that science has long-term stability. We have worked with our scientists at CEFAS to ensure that there is long-term sustainability for all the important work that they will undertake—rather than things being decided year by year, as under the Tory Government.
