https://www.parliament.uk/business/publications/written-questions-answers-statements/written-statement/Commons/2018-03-13/HCWS540/<\/a>)<\/p>The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) was allocated £23.6 million in 2018/19 as part of this.<\/p>
<\/p>
At Autumn Budget 2017, the Chancellor also set aside £1.5 billion of additional funding for department\u2019s EU Exit preparations in 2019/20. The Treasury has received the CMA\u2019s bid and will announce further details about allocations in due course.<\/p>
<\/p>
At the same time, the Chancellor announced £2.8m a year in additional funding for the CMA to take on more cases against companies acting unfairly.<\/p>
<\/p>
All long-term funding decisions are for the next Spending Review, which will take place in 2019.<\/p>"}
