Members for Ellesmere Port and Neston, South Basildon and East Thurrock, and Cambridge; and further notes the unrivalled contribution that the study of biology and the biological sciences have made and continue to make to understanding of nature, to quality of life, and to the knowledge economy of the 21st century.
