These programmes have since invested £144 million to date in individual projects, and of the remaining £308 million held by such endowment programmes, a further £154 million is already committed to specific SME projects.</p><p> </p><p>Non–endowment programmes are funded a quarter in advance on evidence of credible pipeline projects. These programmes have spent £172 million with a further £151 million of RGF paid to them in the last financial quarter under the expectation it would be spent this quarter. The money held by these programmes is not causing any delay to individual projects as businesses claim the money according to their business needs. A table of RGF funding allocated to intermediaries by each bidding round and region will be placed in the libraries of the House.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Sevenoaks answering member printed Michael Fallon question first answered 09/04/2014 12:00:00 answering member 88 label Biography information for Sir Michael Fallon attachment 1 file name table for PQ 195284.doc title Regional Growth Funding
