<p>The EU Asylum, Migration and Integration Fund (AMIF), to which this question presumably
relates, is operated in the UK by the AMIF UK Responsible Authority. The total value
of the fund to the UK is currently €538.2m.</p><p>AMIF operates on a funding year
different to the financial year, the AMIF year runs 16 October to 15 October, furthermore
funding is allocated for the full 7-year programme.</p><p>In agreeing the AMIF UK
National Programme with the European Commission, the UK proposed an even spending
plan across the programme, and the funds can be utilised flexibly across the programme,
so the spending plan is only a rough guide.</p><p>There is not a set amount allocated
for the current financial year. To date the UK has utilised €372m, this figure includes
both expenditure and funding committed by grant agreement. In addition, the Responsible
Authority is currently undertaking an open call for proposals for integration related
activities for a value of up to £50m.</p><p> </p>
