UK businesses and universities should continue to bid for competitive EU funds while we remain a member of the EU. The Government will work with the European Commission to ensure payment when funds are awarded, and will underwrite the payment of such awards even when specific projects continue beyond the UK's departure from the EU.</p> answering member constituency Clwyd West answering member printed Mr David Jones question first answered 05/09/2016 15:43:22 answering member 1502 label Biography information for Mr David Jones
