New page

The House of Commons '''Science and Technology Committee''' exists "to ensure that Government policy and decision-making are based on good scientific and engineering advice and evidence".

It is unusual amongst departmental select committees in that it scrutinises the [[Government Office for Science]] (GO-Science), which is a "semi-autonomous organisation" based within the [[Department for Business, Innovation and Skills]] (BIS).

GO-Science "supports the Government Chief Scientific Adviser and works to ensure that Government policy and decision-making is underpinned by robust scientific evidence". The committee therefore has a similarly broad remit and can examine the activities of departments where they have implications for, or made use of, science, engineering, technology and research.
