[157069]
- Answer
-
The Secretary of State for Energy and Climate Change, the right hon. Member for Kingston and Surbiton (Mr Davey) has not had any recent discussions with the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), regarding its research into climate change in the polar regions. However, I visited BAS in 2011, to learn more about its research work. My officials are in regular contact with BAS scientists and one of its scientists has been working on a part-time basis with DECC as a Government Knowledge Integrator, since August 2012.
