The Government looks set to announce Britain’s membership of the scheme which it was frozen out of in a post-Brexit row.
The UK is expected to rejoin the European Union’s £85 billion Horizon science research programme which it was locked out of in a Brexit row.
Britain continued to participate under the post-Brexit trade deal brokered with Brussels but was frozen out in a tit-for-tat retaliation in a dispute over Northern Ireland arrangements.Scientists welcomed news of the agreement, first reported by Bloomberg, having warned that the sector was disadvantaged by two missed years of collaboration.
The level of compensation the EU will pay the UK for being excluded from the scheme during the bitter row over trading rules for Northern Ireland in 2020 was still thought to be an issue. Whitehall sources said in July that a draft deal was with the Prime Minister, prompting scientists to cautiously celebrate the development.
A senior scientist at London’s Francis Crick Institute welcomed the latest developments as “fantastic news”.
