answer text <p>The Government recognises the critical role that post offices play in communities and for small businesses across the UK. This is why the Government committed to safeguard the post office network and protect existing rural services. The overall number of post offices across the UK remains at its most stable in decades with over 11,500 branches thanks to significant Government investment of over £2 billion since 2010.</p><p> </p><p>While the Government sets the strategic direction for the Post Office, it allows the company the commercial freedom to deliver this strategy as an independent business. Franchising is an operational matter for the Post Office. I have therefore asked Paula Vennells, the Group Chief Executive of Post Office Limited, to write to the hon Member on this matter. A copy of her reply will be placed in the libraries of the House.</p> more like this

answer text <p>The sector’s Life Science Industrial Strategy, authored by Professor Sir John Bell, made recommendations to government in support of the vision for the UK to be a global hub that makes the UK the home of clinical research and medical innovation. The two Life Sciences Sector Deals are collaborative endeavours across government, academia, charities and industry to deliver on this bold vision.</p><p>The two Deals include significant joint investment from government and the sector to support research and development, both academic and commercial, to ensure the UK remains at the forefront of global drug development.</p><p>The UK has a track record of supporting university spin out companies, with the goal of translating innovative research into commercial successes and ultimately treatments that will benefit patients. Catalyst programmes, including Innovate UK and the Medical Research Council’s Biomedical Catalyst aim to de-risk innovative science and commercialise ideas arising out of academia and industry, helping UK SMEs to develop into competitive and sustainable organisations.</p><p>The Government recently announced further support for genomics as part of my rt. hon. Friend Mr Chancellor of the Exchequer’s Spring Statement. The announcement featured a £45 million investment for increasing the European Bioinformatics Institute’s computing and storage capacity which underpins much of the UK’s genomics research work, including UK Biobank. This announcement supports the boosting the UK’s genomics sector, which is a key commitment in our second Life Sciences Sector Deal.</p>
