answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/12/2018 answer text <p>The UK and the EU have agreed the Political Declaration, which sets the framework for the UK’s future relationship with the EU. The UK and the EU recognise that this means there could be a spectrum of different outcomes, and both have agreed that we should be as ambitious as possible. The analysis shows that the modelled White Paper scenario, and the sensitivity modelled around it, would support higher economic output for all sectors, nations and regions than the no deal scenario. The average FTA, EEA-type and no deal scenarios do not deliver the Government’s policy objectives.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 03/12/2018 16:08:12 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/12/2018 answer text <p>All programmes need to demonstrate how they will address persistent poverty and high levels of inequality as part of the Fund’s primary purpose. Before approval is given to programmes to begin implementation, they are required to go through a rigorous design and assurance process, using the HMT five-case business case model, which requires robust and detailed analysis of the programme’s expected impact. It is too early to assess the full effectiveness of the programmes detailed in the annual report; programmes are currently in their first year of delivery or have received funding for preparatory activity.</p><p> </p><p>The Prosperity Fund has contracted external suppliers to provide robust monitoring and evaluation across the portfolio of programmes. They will provide rigorous evidence and assessment of the Fund’s development objectives. Assessments will also be made as part of regular programme annual reviews. These reviews will be published in line with the Fund’s transparency commitments.</p> answering member constituency Aylesbury answering member printed Mr David Lidington grouped question UIN 196248 196249 196250 196251 question first answered 05/12/2018 10:15:56 answering member 15 label Biography information for Sir David Lidington
