Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, with reference to the Government's policy paper, Collaboration on Science and Innovation: Future Partnership Paper, published on 6 September 2017, how much funding the UK has received in each of the last five years from the Horizon 2020 programme; and what those amounts were as a proportion of the total EU-wide funding in each of those years.

Between 2011 and 2015 the UK received around €5bn or 11% of total funding under the Framework Programmes for Research & Innovation. Further information can be found in the EU Expenditure and Revenue documents published online annually by the European Commission.
