Brexit: EU must end 'persistent delays' in giving UK access to scientific research programmes, says government
The EU must end "persistent delays" over the UK's access to the bloc's scientific research programmes after Brexit, the government has demanded as it launched legal action.

Other schemes that have been affected include nuclear research programme Euratom, and access to space surveillance and tracking.
