Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that staff remain in the UK in the light of the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts supercomputer moving to Italy.
No final decision has yet been taken by the Members of European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) on the future location of its supercomputer. We have made clear the UK’s commitment and enduring entitlement to hosting the ECMWF Headquarters.
