This has not yet been incorporated into calculations of GDP, and so an official estimate of UK R&amp;D expenditure as a proportion of GDP under the new methodology is not yet available. However, on this revised basis, DSIT estimates R&amp;D investment would have been between 2.8% and 2.9% of GDP for 2021. Government remains committed to public R&amp;D expenditure reaching £20bn for 24/25, a record level.</p> answering member constituency Arundel and South Downs answering member printed Andrew Griffith question first answered 06/03/2024 10:49:01 answering member 4874 label Biography information for Andrew Griffith
