Lord Allen of Kensington – 2015 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Allen of Kensington on 2015-11-30.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of Innovate UK’s catapult networks.

Baroness Neville-Rolfe

This Government is committed to the Catapult network and has prioritised core funding support for the network in the recent Spending Review. It has already expanded the network by announcing, in July, that a Medicines Technologies Catapult would be established and developed at Alderley Park in Cheshire.

Innovate UK will be publishing its revised Strategy for 2016-20 in the spring and this will set out plans for evaluation of the Catapult network.
