question text	To ask Her Majesty's Government, further to the Draft Agreement on the withdrawal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland from the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community, published on 14 November, what are the estimated payments to be made by the UK to the EU as reimbursements of the costs of facilitating access for the UK to relevant networks, information systems and databases under the provision of Articles 50 and 53, for the years 2019–20 and 2020–21.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/12/2018 answer text <p>The UK recognises that access to any IT system does not come without cost, and it is right that we pay those costs that the rest of the EU would necessarily incur in providing for access to those systems. The Withdrawal Agreement sets out that the UK will pay the actual costs of providing access to those systems and therefore the amount that the UK will pay will depend on the amount that the systems are used.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 06/12/2018 17:42:53 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates

question text	Her Majesty's Government whether they intend to establish a cross-departmental working party to consider replacement of the Barnett Formula with a needs-based system of resource allocation, and what consideration they have given to putting such a system in place for the 2019-20 financial year.

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/07/2017 answer text <p>The government remains committed to the Barnett formula, and has no plans to replace it. The Barnett formula is designed to ensure that Devolved Administrations are funded in a transparent way to deliver their priorities within their devolved responsibilities.</p><p> </p><p>The government has also recently agreed a new fiscal framework for the Welsh Government, which both governments agree is fair for Wales and for the rest of the UK. The Barnett formula will remain central to the Welsh Government’s funding, while the introduction of a new needs-based factor will see their relative funding remain at a fair level for the long term.</p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 27/07/2017 08:47:51 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates

question text	Her Majesty's Government what plans they have developed to ensure that, following Brexit, funding which has previously been supplied to Wales through European Structural Funds will be fully replaced with UK Treasury funds.

uin	HL843
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/07/2017 answer text <p>The government has announced a number of guarantees for EU funding. These include European structural and investment fund projects signed before the UK leaves the EU, awards made by the European Commission following competitive bid processes, and maintaining the current level of agricultural funding under CAP pillar 1 until 2020.</p><p> </p><p>Beyond these priorities, decisions on the replacement of EU funding will be taken in light of wider UK strategic priorities and other domestic spending decisions. For example, as set out in our manifesto, the government will continue to commit the same cash total in funds for farm support until the end of the parliament, and will create a new UK Shared Prosperity Fund.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Bates question first answered 27/07/2017 08:50:55 answering member 1091 label Biography information for Lord Bates
