Proceeding contribution from John Hayes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 7 July 2008. It occurred during Estimates day on Science Budget.

Science Budget

On the Haldane principle and conclusion 6 of the report, the hon. Lady will be mindful of the fact that the Committee argued that cross-cutting programmes that affect more than one council, largely in pursuit of Government-inspired initiatives, have skewed budgets. Does she agree with that conclusion? I know that she is attempting to be very measured, but is that an issue that the Government should look into further?
