answer text <p>By Open Skies agreement, we have understood the question to refer to the recently agreed Open Skies agreement with the US, which will replace the existing EU aviation agreement with the US. The deal ensures that planes flying from the UK will continue to have the same access they currently have to the US, ensuring the UK maintains its place as one of the world’s leading aviation hubs.</p><p>Currently there are no direct scheduled passenger services that run between the US and Cardiff Airport.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Whilst Tourism is primarily a devolved matter in Wales, the UK Government supports sports tourism throughout the UK at every opportunity, including through Visit Britain and the ‘Great’ campaign. The UK Government also provides support for major international sporting events such as the UEFA Champions League Final, which was held in Cardiff in 2017, and we continue strongly to support bids to host other sporting competitions.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Future decisions on funding will form part of the 2019 Spending Review, but in the meantime the draft Withdrawal Agreement states that the UK would continue to participate in 2014-2020 programmes until they close. 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> more like this
