answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 19/03/2015 answer text <p>Office for National Statistics (ONS) publish annual outturn figures for R&amp;D expenditure here:<br><a href="http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/rdit1/science--engineering-and-technology-statistics/2012/stb-set-2012.html#tab-Key-Points" target="_blank">http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/rel/rdit1/science--engineering-and-technology-statistics/2012/stb-set-2012.html#tab-Key-Points</a> <br><br>The most recent publication, which includes expenditure figures to 2012 (financial year 2012/13) was published on 11 July 2014. The table below shows the latest estimates for Home Office and how they compare as a percentage to total departmental expenditure.</p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Published estimate of net spend on R &amp; D IN Home Office (current prices) </strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Percentage of total Home Office expenditure </strong>(1)</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010/11</p></td><td><p>£42 million</p></td><td><p>0.31%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011/12</p></td><td><p>£24 million</p></td><td><p>0.18%</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012/13</p></td><td><p>£18 million</p></td><td><p>0.14%</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>(1) Taken as a percentage of the total departmental spending estimate from page 153 of the Annual Report and Accounts 2013/14<br><br>The change in the estimate of the R &amp; D spend in Home Office between 2010/11 and 2011/12 is largely explained by some structural changes in scientific teams <br>as well as a change in the method of estimation between the two years. The figures for 2011/12 also excluded the British Crime Survey responsibility for <br>which was transferred to the ONS the following year. In addition some significant savings on Home Office research contracts were made in both 2011/12 and 2012/13. <br><br>The government has also created new delivery mechanisms for services such as the locally accountable Police and Crime Commissioners (PCCs), the new Police <br>ICT Company that provides vital support to the police and PCCs with tools to achieve value for money and operational effectiveness, and the creation of a <br>competitive market to provide Forensic Science Services to the police. These changes are likely to result in some R &amp; D investment being delivered outside the Home Office.<br><br>Overall our science and research programmes are flexible and respond to our policy and operational priorities. This leads to a changing expenditure profile between financial years as research is directed against current and emerging challenges.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency Staffordshire Moorlands answering member printed Karen Bradley question first answered 19/03/2015 15:55:56 answering member 4110 label Biography information for Dame Karen Bradley
