We show that the celebrated Friedlander-Suslin theorem – on finite generation of cohomology of a finite group scheme G over a field – remains valid for a finite flat group scheme G over a commutative noetherian ring. In view of earlier work it suffices to put a uniform bound, depending on G only, on torsion in cohomology of G-modules.
