question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Wales, with reference to the Answer of 27 April 2017 to Question 71787 on EU Grants and Loans: Wales, which European programmes, that are partly but not wholly EU programmes, does the UK plan to continue to participate in after the UK has left the EU.

uin	118987
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/12/2017 answer text <p>For EU programmes funded from the current Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF), the Joint Report agreed by the UK and the European Commission makes clear that UK participants’ eligibility to apply to participate in EU programmes and receive funding from EU programmes will be unaffected by our withdrawal from the EU. The UK will continue to be an active participant across all programmes. This guarantees that the UK will continue to get its receipts for EU programmes until the end of the current budget plan and for the lifetime of the project, providing certainty to projects and UK entities.</p><p> </p><p>Programmes for the next MFF have not yet been designed. We will take decisions on participation in future programmes in due course, as the proposals are developed. As the Prime Minister said in Florence, the UK is keen to continue to participate in programmes which benefit both the UK and the EU. HMG’s series of position and discussion papers on the future relationship has already elaborated on this further.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Vale of Glamorgan answering member printed Alun Cairns question first answered 18/12/2017 13:27:28 answering member 4086 label Biography information for Alun Cairns
