I propose to take Questions Nos. 755 and 756 together.
The post of chief science advisor, CSA, to the Government was established to provide independent scientific advice to the Government on a confidential basis. The CSA did not advise the Government on the subjects of the incineration of waste and the genetic modification of food.
