		The universities today are at the heart of a productive economy, and they need resources for research, education and infrastructure if they are to perform their critical role.
		Among the measures are a dedicated stream of capital funding for universities, worth £500 million per year by 2004- 05, and substantial new resources for the Research Councils to boost the volume of basic research and to support collaborative research in areas such as sustainable energy.
		The cycle from generation and dissemination of science to economic growth and all the other benefits to society will not be complete unless industry is well placed to use science and technology in an innovative and competitive way.

	Blair Demands Nuclear Power to Protect High 'Living Standards'
		The Prime Minister has personally endorsed "keeping the nuclear option open" and is planning a government statement on a change of policy before the summer, in the face of opposition from cabinet ministers, including Margaret Beckett, the Secretary of State for the Environment.
		A paper by departmental civil servants for Alan Johnson, the new Secretary of State for Productivity Energy and Industry, proposes that building more nuclear power plants or extending the lives of present ones should be a top priority for the first months of Labour's third term.
		The question is whether we need to decide now (bearing in mind that it is generally easier to push ahead on controversial issues early in a new Parliament).

		One way, she said, will be to put the state's resources to work to encourage energy innovation by expanding the state's Green Power program.
		McGinty said Pennsylvania Energy Harvest is part of the plan to get the state to meet 10 percent of its energy needs with green power by encouraging more Commonwealth agencies to use energy sources such as biomass, wind, solar, small-scale hydroelectric, landfill methane, coal-bed methane and even waste-coal.
