Topical Questions

Has the Secretary of State had a chance to study early-day motion 1013, which deplores the university of Liverpool's intention to close down the three departments of philosophy, politics and statistics? A great city such as Liverpool needs philosophy and politics. What can the Minister do to discourage this appalling philistine act?

Science

Dr. Brian Cox of Manchester university's school of physics and astronomy has said:"““Scientific research is not a luxury, it is a necessity””." I am concerned that most of the cuts that will occur as a result of the £80 million shortfall will not be to major facilities, but to small grants going to physics and astrophysics departments, not only in the north-west, but throughout the country. What assurances can the Minister give that that bedrock of blue skies research in physics and astrophysics, which brought us things such as the MRI scanner, will be protected?
