Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, whether the Turing Scheme will commit the same proportion of investment to industrial symbiosis as the Erasmus scheme did previously.

The Turing Scheme is demand-led, and as such, the scheme does not commit to specific levels of funding for single areas or industries, including industrial symbiosis.

Universities are independent, autonomous bodies, and consequently, responsible for forging their own partnerships, including those with industries.
