answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/02/2018 answer text <p>As announced at the Autumn Budget 2017, HM Treasury is making £3 billion of additional funding available over the next two years - £1.5 billion in both 2018/19 and 2019/20 – so that departments and the devolved administrations can continue to prepare effectively for Brexit. We are currently working with HM Treasury and Department for Exiting the European Union to establish what we need to prepare effectively, and what additional funding should be supplied – HM Treasury will aim to agree 2018/19 allocations early this year. Funding requirements for 2019/20 will be affected by progress in negotiations with the EU and will therefore be decided at a later date. Additional funding received from the Reserve will be set out at Supplementary Estimates in the usual way.</p> answering member constituency North East Cambridgeshire answering member printed Stephen Barclay question first answered 13/02/2018 16:42:58 answering member 4095 label Biography information for Steve Barclay
