Research: Northern Ireland

Wednesday 7th September 2022

Asked by: Aaron Bell (Conservative - Newcastle-under-Lyme)

Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, what steps his Department is taking to support research and development in Northern Ireland.

Answered by Conor Burns

This Government is committed to turbocharging innovation in Northern Ireland.

We are increasing investment in R&D outside the South East by at least 40% by 2030; we’re investing £617m in digital and innovation through NI City Deals; and there is more to come through the £400m New Deal for Northern Ireland.
