answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/05/2019 answer text <p>The Withdrawal Agreement ensures that UK based organisations will be able to bid for funding, participate in and lead consortia and otherwise implement as normal EU development programmes that are approved before December 2020 until they complete. Furthermore, we are clear that any future UK financial contribution to the EU would require eligibility for UK entities to bid for and implement programmes where the UK funds. We regularly consult NGOs regarding their concerns to ensure we can support our world-class development sector. I therefore urge the Hon. Gentleman to support the Withdrawal Agreement.</p> answering member constituency West Worcestershire answering member printed Harriett Baldwin question first answered 20/05/2019 16:07:24 answering member 4107 label Biography information for Dame Harriett Baldwin
