Question to the Department for Levelling Up, Housing & Communities:
To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government, what discussions he has had with HM Treasury on funding for existing EU structural and investment projects; and if all such projects meet the criteria of providing strong value for money and are in line with domestic strategic priorities.
My Department is in regular contact with HM Treasury regarding funding for EU Structural and Investment Funds. All European Regional Development Fund projects signed to date deliver value for money and are in line with domestic strategic priorities. These will be guaranteed by the Government after the UK leaves the EU.
