<p>The United Kingdom receives an allocation for the Structural Funds (the European
Regional Development Fund and European Social Fund) but not the Cohesion Fund.</p><p>
</p><p>A large number of United Kingdom organisations received European Funding under
Structural Funds programmes in the last year. As these are too numerous to set down
here, I have provided below details of websites which contain lists of beneficiary
organisations.</p><p> </p><p>The links to the Structural Funds programmes are:</p><p>

other sources of EU funding that BIS is responsible for, this includes the Framework
Programme 7 for Research & Innovation with numerous participants from Higher Education,
Research Organisations, Private Sector and Public bodies. Project information is not
set out on the Commission website in such a way as to make it easy to identify UK
recipients of EU funding in a calendar year.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Another
source of EU funding that BIS was responsible for was the Entrepreneurship and Innovation
Programme (EIP) under the Competitiveness of Innovation and Enterprises (CIP). The
latest beneficiaries report is the 2012 version. The following link will provide more
information about the recipients of the programme, <a href="http://ec.europa.eu/cip/files/cip/docs/beneficiaries-report-october-2012_en.pdf"
