That's because they don't claim they are biomedical. One question was asked, "how much is planned to be spent on biomedical research", a different but related answer was given by merely listing what research has been previously funded.How can they list those studies and claim they are "biomedical" with a straight face? This is clearly false and it takes all of 2 minutes to see it.
The accountability, in this example, comes from the MP asking the question and/or the opposition parties. Not sure what you mean by your claim "no one involved at this level cares"; while fewer than we would like, there are MPs such as Carol Monaghan who do care about how ME is treated and researched in the UK.Oh, right, no accountability and no one involved at this level cares.
