Higher Education and Research Bill

Written Question
Government Departments: Research
Monday 13th March 2017

Asked by: Baroness O'Neill of Bengarve (Crossbench - Life peer)

Question to the Cabinet Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they will respond to the report <i>Missing Evidence: An Inquiry into the delayed publication of government-commissioned research</i> published in June 2016 and whether they intend to publish an online register of government commissioned research.

Answered by Lord Young of Cookham

This government is committed to being the most transparent government in the world. We believe that access to research is fundamental to effective policy development and wider scientific inquiry across government. The report is a useful contribution to work in this area.

While the publication of individual pieces of research is a decision for individual government departments, the Government Digital Service (GDS) is committed to ensuring users can find the content they need on Gov.uk; users are able to search and filter relevant policy and research papers from government departments and agencies. GDS is also undertaking work to improve data discovery tools, building on the data.gov.uk platform, to make it easier for government departments to publish data they hold and for external users to find it. This will help to improve the quality of data descriptions so finding the right data will become easier for our users.

Voter Registration

"Does the Minister agree that Northern Ireland gives us another reason to think about compulsory registration? The Government have maintained that the common travel area will continue after Brexit. I do not see how that can be done except by people having ID cards or passports that are biometrically sophisticated …..."

Queen’s Speech

Deregulation Bill

Electoral Registration and Administration Bill

"My Lords, I, too, thank the noble Baroness, Lady Neuberger, our special adviser and, of course, the secretariat. This was a complex report to get together.
