answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/07/2016 answer text <p>The Prime Minister has said she will not trigger Article 50 until we have a UK approach and objectives, and Article 50 should therefore not be invoked before the end of this year. The process for leaving the EU and determining our future relationship will be a complex one, so we need to take time to think through our objectives and approach. We want to ensure the best possible outcome for Britain and the future UK-EU relationship.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 27/07/2016 09:58:22 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/07/2016 answer text <p>The Government recognises the importance of our research base, which is why we have protected the science budget in real terms from its current level of £4.7 bn for the rest of the parliament.</p><p>The referendum result has no immediate effect on the right of researchers to apply to or participate in EU research programmes. We remain a part of the EU until negotiations are concluded. While the UK remains a member of the EU, current EU arrangements continue unchanged. UK participants, including those researching mental health issues, can continue to apply to programmes in the usual way. The future of UK access to these programmes is one of many issues to be addressed in our EU negotiations.</p> answering member constituency Worcester answering member printed Mr Robin Walker question first answered 27/07/2016 10:10:58 answering member 4091 label Biography information for Mr Robin Walker
