Proceeding contribution from Adam Afriyie (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 23 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Physics Research.


Physics Research

The right hon. Gentleman said that science was "starved" of funding. However, as the hon. Member for Oxford, West and Abingdon (Dr. Harris) has pointed out, the percentage share of GDP that was invested in science during the years that he mentioned is exactly the same as the percentage share of GDP that is invested today. So is the right hon. Gentleman arguing that the Government today are starving science of money?
