Select Committee on Innovation, Universities and Skills First Report


Conclusions and recommendations


1.  We are at a loss to understand the rationale for the behaviour by the Treasury in changing the application of the rules with regard to the MRC's Commercial Fund and request an explanation. (Paragraph 5)

2.  We expect to receive quarterly updates, beginning in March 2008, on the development of the project with particular reference to the concerns highlighted above from the MRC and DIUS and would much welcome similar briefings from the other partners. (Paragraph 13)
