Data was missing for the year 2021.
The data refers to business R&D performed in the UK irrespective of the residence of the ultimate owner. Overseas activities of affiliates of UK businesses are not included by the source. * Each year approximately 4,000 businesses are surveyed from England, Scotland and Wales, and approximately 1,400 from Northern Ireland. Breakdown by industry not provided.
The source adds the following note regarding response rate of the 2019 survey: "The response rate for the 2019 BERD survey in Great Britain was 56%, which was lower than usual because of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The rate for 2018 was 84%. This means that the estimates in this statistical bulletin are subject to more uncertainty than usual because of fewer responders on which to base the survey results."
