I lead on research and innovation matters. I have not held discussions with universities about creating an equivalent to a UK Research and Innovation body. However, the Hazelkorn report recommended a review of Government funded research and innovation strategy and policy. Professor Graeme Reid has been asked to undertake a review of investments by the Welsh Government and related agencies in research and innovation activity in Wales. His work is intended to identify research and innovation strengths in Wales and outline how these assets can be used more effectively by business, communities and government.
