This book was released on 2005-11-14 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pages 3 to 7 of this report discuss the Commission's communication on reducing the climate change impact of aviation. Although fuel efficiency of aircraft has increased by more than 70 per cent over the past 40 years, this has been more than offset by the even higher growth in traffic. Whilst the Community's total emissions of greenhouse gases controlled under the Kyoto protocol fell by 5 per cent between 1990 and 2003, those from international aviation increased by 73 per cent. Aviation, though, remains largely outside the measures which have been taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Commission proposes including aviation within the Community's emissions trading scheme, and will introduce legislative proposals to this effect by the end of 2006. The Committee recommends the communication for debate in European Standing Committee A.

This book was released on 2007-11-07 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 28 June 2007, the Prime Minister announced changes to the machinery of Government that had an impact upon the select committee system within the House of Commons. As a result, the Science and Technology Select Committee will be dissolved and replaced by a new Innovation, Universities and Skills Select Committee at the beginning of the next session of Parliament. This Report explains the role that the Science and Technology Committee has played within Parliament and the science community. It outlines the Committee's innovations, its impact and concerns regarding future science scrutiny in the House of Commons. It concludes that, in the long term, a separate Science and Technology Committee is the only way to guarantee a permanent focus on science across Government within the select committee system and recommends that the House be given an opportunity to revisit this issue.

Download or read book Research council institutes written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Science and Technology Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-03-22 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eight UK Research Councils are the largest public investors in the UK scientific research and skills base, investing their annual budget of £2.8 billion in their own institutes and centres (collectively known as Research Council Institutes or RCIs) as well as awarding grants to universities. RCIs make a unique contribution in terms of providing national capacity and access to facilities and in developing multidisciplinary science driven by a clearly-defined mission, and vary widely in their structure, governance, facilities, size and objectives. The Committee's report focuses on the Research Councils' strategies for providing support to their RCIs, including the case for greater harmonisation of policy and practice, the role of Research Council UK in monitoring and improving the effectiveness of support for RCIs, the role of the Office of Science and Innovation (OSI), and a review of progress in three current restructuring projects involving the Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, the Roslin Institute, and the National Institute for Medical Research. The report's overall conclusion is that the OSI needs to take on greater responsibility in this area, in order to monitor the state of the research base, to improve mechanisms for guaranteed funding, and to improve dialogue between government, Research Councils and the RCI sector.

This book was released on 2007-03-15 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cooksey Review ("A review of UK health research funding", ISBN 9780118404884), published in December 2006, was commissioned by the Chancellor of the Exchequer to examine the best design and institutional arrangements for a new single funding system for UK health research. The Committee's report supports the decision by Sir David Cooksey to broaden his review beyond its original terms of reference to make wider recommendations for the UK health research framework, for example relating to healthcare treatment priorities, as well as outlining a number of tasks for the Office of Science and Innovation to address. The Review found that although good progress has been made in some areas, further work is needed to ensure that publicly-funded health research is carried out in the most effective and efficient way and to facilitate translation of research findings into health and economic benefits. Amongst its recommendations, the Review proposed that a new body should be established, the Office for Strategic Coordination of Health Research (OSCHR), as the central co-ordinating body for all health research carried out by the NHS and the Medical Research Council. The Committee raises some concerns that although the pharmaceutical sector is of great importance, allied health research such as medical engineering and technology, preventive and public health research should not be overlooked. It also calls on the OSCHR to operate as a light touch organisation that does not complicate the existing successful administrative mechanisms of the Medical Research Council.

This book was released on 2010-02-04 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The British Council is the UK's international organisation for educational opportunities and cultural relations. Its purpose is to "build engagement and trust for the UK through the exchange of knowledge and ideas between people worldwide." As well as education, it runs programmes in the arts, science, sport, governance and English language in 110 countries and territories worldwide. 2009 marked the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the Council. It receives Grant-in-Aid from the FCO for its public diplomacy activity: £209 million 2008-09, a 6% increase from 2007-08. The Committee concludes that the change in extent of data provided and the presentation of that data in the British Council's 2008-09 annual report makes it more difficult to track and evaluate the Council's performance over a period of years. In future the annual report should include fuller performance data, including corporate performance scores and reach, to facilitate year-on-year analysis. The recent decline in some of the scores achieved in relation to quality of service, particularly in that relating to engagement with decision makers and senior influencers, gives cause for concern. The Committee welcomes the Council's efforts to re-establish itself in Iran and Zimbabwe, its increased focus on China, and its progress in implementing NAO suggested administrative reforms (HC 625, session 2007-08, ISBN 9780102954173). 2009-10 will be a difficult year for the British Council and further cuts in staff and services may be unavoidable. In these circumstances it is important that the Council concentrates its activities on its core business and key objectives.

Book Synopsis The funding of science and discovery centres by : Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Science and Technology Committee
Download or read book The funding of science and discovery centres written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Science and Technology Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2007-10-22 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science and discovery centres make up an extremely diverse group with the common characteristic of the use of interactive exhibits to promote awareness of scientific issues and to spark people's curiosity, particularly those of children and young people. They provide informal education in all kinds of scientific and technological areas, including astronomy, ecology, energy generation, engineering, marine biology, medicine and physics. The Committee's report examines the role and effectiveness of science centres, how science centres are co-ordinated and organised, and how they are funded. Findings include that in the short term, given that a number of science centres are struggling financially and risk closure, the Government should make available limited, competitively-awarded, short-term funding to support these centres, as well as reducing the tax burden on science and other educational centres. However, the Committee agrees with the Government's stance that it should not fund failing centres and recommends that the Government commission independent research to ascertain their effectiveness. Ecsite-uk is well placed to assess models that exist in Scotland and internationally, with a view to implementing structural and best practice guidance that promotes co-ordination between science centres across the UK. The report also welcomes the offer by the Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills to take responsibility for science centres, and recommends that this responsibility be formally written into the Ministerial portfolio.
