Ministerial CorrectionsThis Government, more than any other, understand the importance of science funding. That is why we have protected science spending until the end of the Parliament—a decade of real-terms protection. Our universities and institutes can continue today to apply for EU competitive funding streams under Horizon 2020, and I am sure they will continue to be successful in the future.

Letter of correction from Joseph Johnson.
An error has been identified in the response I gave to the hon. Member for Hove (Peter Kyle) during Oral Questions to the Secretary of State for Education.
The correct response should have been:
