Sir Fergus Montgomery

To ask the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster what steps have been taken to encourage companies to donate equipment to higher educational establishments; and if he will make a statement.

The Government look to higher educational establishments to increase their links with companies and encourages industry to further those links and donate cash, equipment or staff time. There are a number of tax incentives available to encourage company donations, including donations of equipment, to higher education.
