answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/07/2019 answer text The Government has pledged to continue to commit the same cash total in funds for farm support until the end of the parliament. It has also set out its plans for English agriculture policy after we have left the EU, including phasing down direct payments from 2021 over seven years. Agriculture is a devolved matter, so it is for the Welsh Government to decide whether to continue with direct payments in Wales. We will continue to engage with the Welsh Government on arrangements for domestic replacement funding after 2022, but have already committed not to simply apply the Barnett Formula to agriculture funding in England. This means that funding will not just be allocated according to the population of each nation. answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss question first answered 05/07/2019 11:23:04 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/07/2019 answer text <p>HM Treasury ministers and officials have regular discussions with counterparts in the Welsh Government on matters relating to EU Exit, including funding. On agriculture funding, the Government has committed to provide the same cash total in funds for farm support until the end of the Parliament. Under this commitment, the average annual cash total for farm support under the existing 2014-2020 Multiannual Financial Framework, and the average annual Exchequer funding provided for farm support under Pillar 2, will be rolled forward year by year until the end of this parliament. An independent advisory panel, led by Lord Bew of Donegore, is considering what factors should determine the distribution of convergence funding across the UK during this period. We expect the review to report over the summer in advance of decisions at the Spending Review.</p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss grouped question UIN 270339 question first answered 05/07/2019 11:21:11 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
