I've a different angle that touches on a secondary point in the piece. The egislation is technically illiterate (they want legislate for working chocolate teapots). It also stands counter to enterprise, innovation + R&D policy at national level so runs counter to Enterprise, DFHERIS & Finance

If I were an innovate TU looking to propose new courses to DFHERIS for funding & expansion of offerings, I'd be looking closely at this analysis.
If I were THEA I'd be looking to form a #climate skills consortium among TUs to address this skills gap & lobbying HEA to secure funding.

I've been at two national research strategy-type events this week. One was a complete waste of everyone's time (this was made clear at the time to the hosts). The other, however, was really fantastic. We have some brilliant, dedicated folks in DFHERIS and our broader research system.
