Since the referendum, the Treasury has in total allocated over £4.2bn across government to help departments and devolved administrations prepare for Brexit. It is for departments to decide on the most appropriate way of allocating this to areas in their remit.<\/p>
<\/p>

The Prime Minister has agreed to an extension to Article 50 until 31 October 2019 at the latest. This eliminates the risk of a near-term economic disruption as a result of leaving the EU without a deal before that date.<\/p>
<\/p>
However, a responsible government must plan for every eventuality, including a no deal scenario, that\u2019s why we\u2019ve allocated £4bn for Brexit preparations.<\/p>

Businesses and infrastructure projects raise finance from the private market, with important UK government support.<\/p>
<\/p>
The European Investment Bank Group provides finance alongside other market participants. In 2017, the European Investment Bank, which predominantly invests in infrastructure projects, invested EUR 1.84bn in the UK. Its SME risk-finance focused subsidiary, the European Investment Fund, invested EUR 61.05m in UK operations in 2017.<\/p>
<\/p>
As we leave the EU, we continue to actively explore options for a future relationship with the European Investment Bank Group. However, as the Chancellor has been clear, if we do not maintain our relationship with the EIB group, we will be prepared.<\/p>
<\/p>
The government has a range of existing tools in place to support infrastructure and SME finance. This includes, the £40 billion UK Guarantees Scheme and the British Business Bank. British Business Bank programmes are supporting more than £5.5bn of finance to over 78,000 smaller businesses. The British Business Bank has capacity to make commitments this year exceeding the combined average annual commitments from the European Investment Fund and British Business Bank in the three years preceding the referendum.<\/p>
<\/p>
The government announced at the Budget that we will review our support for infrastructure finance, to ensure good projects continue to be able to access the finance they need. If no future relationship with the EIB Group is in place when the UK leaves the EU on 29 March 2019, the government will provide the British Business Bank with new resources to enable it to make up to £200m additional investment in venture capital and growth finance in 2019/20.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4320", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Robert Jenrick"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newark"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Robert Jenrick"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2018-12-18", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2018-12-18T16:53:05.943Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "14"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Treasury"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2018-12-13", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "British Business Bank: Finance"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether he plans to increase funding for the British Business Bank to make up the difference between the £200 million it was allocated in Budget 2018 and the £1.89 billion that the European Investment Bank allocated to UK projects in 2017.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4124", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Chi Onwurah"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Newcastle upon Tyne Central"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Chi Onwurah"} ], "uin" : "202139"} ], "itemsPerPage" : 10, "page" : 0, "startIndex" : 1, "totalResults" : 5, "type" : ["http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#ListEndpoint", "http://purl.org/linked-data/api/vocab#Page"]} }
