My hon. Friend makes an important point about diversity in STEM starting at the earliest possible age. I will of course talk to my colleagues in the Department for Education about doing precisely that.
Carol Monaghan (Glasgow North West) (SNP)
A number of my constituents who work in STEM areas have expressed concerns about female research partners currently in Gaza. Can the Minister confirm whether any discussions have taken place with colleagues at the Home Office about providing emergency visas to female STEM academics who are currently working in collaboration with UK partners?
Andrew Griffith
I am not aware of that, but I will happily ask the question of Home Office colleagues and write to the hon. Lady.
