The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what is the lifespan of the Semiconductor Advisory Panel; and when does he expect to receive any recommendations from it.

Answered by Kanishka Narayan

The UK Semiconductor Advisory Panel was established to provide a formal mechanism for industry, academia and government to work closely together on delivering the government’s strategic aims for the semiconductor sector. It provides ongoing advice, rather than developing formal recommendations. Panel members serve 18-month terms.
