When interpreting the results in this release, it is important to take into account factors that may affect the reliability of estimates and comparability over time. These factors are described in the Technical Note under the Explanatory Notes tab.

This issue includes information for Gross Expenditure on Research and Experimental Development (GERD).

The Business R&D collection has been conducted on a biennial basis since 2011-12. No data were collected on Business R&D for 2012-13 and therefore no data are available for the 2012-13 period.
