Request

Request Received: 31 January 2020

This freedom of information request concerns the degree of direct funding to the NERC and EPSRC from the coal, oil and gas sector.

"The last year" may be defined as the financial or calendar year, it's up to you. "In Kind" contributions are often made, but I'm only interested in direct financial contributions here.

1) How much funding did the two research councils receive directly from the coal, oil and gas sector over the last year.

2) How much direct funding did the "NERC Centre For Doctoral Training in Oil and Gas" receive from the coal, oil and gas sector over the last year.

3) What is the total monetary value of NERC CASE studentship contributions from the coal, oil and gas sector over the last year.
