Dr. Kim Howells

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) if he will allocate to the Science and Engineering Research Council £20 million earmarked for funding for the nuclear structure facility at Daresbury;

(2) if he will give the allocated budgets for 1991–92, 1992–93 and 1993–94 for the synchrotron radiation source project and the nuclear structure facility at the Daresbury laboratory of the Science and Engineering Research Council in Cheshire.

Mr. Alan Howarth

My right hon. and learned Friend allocates the science budget to the Science and Engineering Research Council and other bodies in the light of advice from the Advisory Board for the Research Councils. It is for the research councils to determine the detailed allocation of the funds made available to them.
