Seanad Committee on the Withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union

Implications for Ireland of the Withdrawal of the UK from the EU in Regard to the Education and Research Sector

Professor Mark Ferguson:

Exactly. There are many projects that are co-funded and in aggregate, when one puts them all together, it runs to two thirds to one third, although it may vary. In some instances, the company may only have to put in one third while in others, it needs to put in two thirds but in aggregate, it is what I have referred to. We need that flexibility. It depends on whether the company is small or where it is in the research and development game. I will hand over to my colleagues to address some of the other questions.
