Question S1W-19166
To ask the Scottish Executive, further to A Science Strategy for Scotland , what plans it has, in partnership with Her Majesty’s Government, to seek funding from Europe and to take advantage of regional aid schemes in the same way that Greece, Spain and Ireland have.
The Scottish Executive is working with the Enterprise Networks to increase the uptake of those European funding streams which aim to encourage research and development. The Executive will be working over the next six months with the UK Office of Science and Technology on FP6, the new framework for European aid for Research and Development. Scotland is well placed to take advantage of the funding streams presented by FP6, as it has a proven track record of excellence in many of the priority areas being put forward by the UK Government.
