Further, due to the Government’s guarantee for EU-funded programmes, UK organisations, including those in Wales, will receive funding in the unlikely event that the Withdrawal Agreement is not ratified.</p><p> </p><p>The UK’s exit from the EU provides us with an opportunity to reconsider how funding for growth across the UK is designed and delivered. Our manifesto committed to creating a UK Shared Prosperity Fund, of which the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government published further details in a Written Ministerial Statement on 24 July.</p> answering member constituency Vale of Glamorgan answering member printed Alun Cairns question first answered 23/11/2018 10:35:31 answering member 4086 label Biography information for Alun Cairns
