answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/03/2023 answer text <p>The National Nuclear User Facility (NNUF) is funded through UKRI and provides equipment for, and access to, state-of-the-art experimental facilities focused on research and development in nuclear science and technology. This work is very different to more mature commercial reactor technologies expected to engage with Great British Nuclear.</p><p>Funding beyond 2024 would be a matter for UKRI and my colleagues in their sponsor department, and would need be considered in the context of future priorities and budget allocations in the next spending review.</p> answering member constituency West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine answering member printed Andrew Bowie question first answered 27/03/2023 13:43:45 answering member 4601 label Biography information for Andrew Bowie

Friend Mr Chancellor in the Spring Budget on 15th March, the Government is launching GBN to address constraints in the nuclear market and support new nuclear builds as the government works towards net zero.
