Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Greg Clark and Lord Vaizey of Didcot

Thursday 20th November 2014 Commons Chamber

[Greg Clark]

I will indeed do that. I had the great pleasure of visiting Stevenage earlier this week to congratulate in person many of the scientists and engineers who worked on that brilliantly successful Rosetta mission. They demonstrated the Mars Rover, which is going to be the next source of excitement.

[The Minister for Culture and the Digital Economy (Mr Edward Vaizey)]

And Harwell in my constituency!

[Greg Clark]

My ministerial colleague quite rightly calls on me to mention the signal role played by Harwell and, indeed, many other space and scientific establishments across the country. It was a great day for UK science.
